FLINT, Mich. - For a few moments last weekend, they were the hottest act in town. But Treephort wore out its welcome at a downtown club when the lead guitarist set his thong on fire, then removed it and scurried around the stage naked.

Two police cars and a fire engine were sent to the club after a 911 call that band members were lighting fires on stage and exposing themselves. No arrests were made and no complaint was filed, according to police records.

Treephort concerts routinely feature members dousing a thong with hairspray before igniting it with a lighter, singer Lee Satterfield said. "We've all done it from time to time," he said. "We're professionals; we know what we're doing."
