"Fuck what anyone says. You want more, we're going to give you more."

Damon Albarn didn't want to quit after his mammoth five hour set with Africa Express at Denmark's Roskilde Festival on Saturday - and a fair few fans wanted him to keep going too - but the security team had other ideas.

At the end of the performance, which featured Nick Zenner from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Laura Mvula and Blur guitarist Graham Coxon, Albarn tried to keep going, rallying the crowd and singing The Clash's 1981 classic "Should I Stay Or Should I Go".

It was 4 a.m., though, and one burly security guy decided he should go.
