It seems everyone is copying and pasting from the original article.
A musician has spoken of his shock at being removed from a train for “behaving suspiciously” by writing a list of songs which included the band name The Killers.
Tom Shaw was travelling on South West Trains when he began writing a list of song titles which his band The Magic Mushrooms would play at a forthcoming gig.
But the 25-year-old was approached by two security staff employed by the train company and asked to leave the train at Fareham railway station.
He told the Portsmouth News: “They made me get out at Fareham and when I asked what was wrong they told me to show them the piece of paper I’d been writing on. They said I’d been behaving suspiciously. I couldn’t understand it. It seemed very strange as it was only a list of songs. We had a gig coming up so I was writing out what we could play.
They made me explain song by song.”
Mr Shaw added that the security staff told him that he had been questioned because there had been a number of arrests in the area including a man who had murdered his wife.
So, all you have to do in the UK to become a suspect in a murder is write out a setlist on a train.
