Jimmy Fallon Certainly came back on Mumford & Son’s good side.

“We have known each other for a very long time,” said “Little Lion Man” -Hitmaker, 38, about Fallon. “We’ve been on your show many times.”

Because of this, Mumford believed that he would have a long speech before his band took the stage.

“I was excited,” he said. “Ah, Jimmy will introduce us, this is really sweet! He will probably go into our story, he will talk about how many times we played SNLOr how we are as the only British artist who plays that evening. ”

A video of Fallon’s short monologue in six words then played: “Ladies and gentlemen, Mumford & Sons!”

Mumford was not so satisfied.

“What the hell, bro!” he said. “There were so many things you could have said! And what’s worse, it was teleprompted! They have the best screenwriters in the world, and that’s what – they pay these guys to write something. He’s a very funny man, he could write something himself if he could be disturbed.”

Fallon placed the blame on SNL Boss Lorne Michaels.

“I remember rehearsing, and I had a big deal,” Oh, blah blah, we love them. “And Lorne was there, and Lorne goes,” we just don’t do these intro, “he said.

But Mumford disagreed.
