Matchbox Twenty fans in Tucson had to wait a little longer than usual for their band this week. A swarm of bees decided to take to the arena before the show.

Matchbox Twenty played Anselmo Valencia Amphitheater in Tucson on Thursday. Singer Rob Thomas posted to Instragam “Beekeeper has arrived!! Still trying to make this happen. Can’t make this up!”

While action was taken, the band were backstage “jamming a bee solo”.
