30 Seconds To Mars rocker Jared Leto was asked to leave the ruins of fabled New York club CBGBs recently just before he attempted to steal posters from the walls.

The actor/rocker was walking past the famous venue as demolition experts were in the process of tearing the club down - and he decided to go in and take a last look.

But Leto stood around for too long, and when workmen noticed him in among the rubble he was asked to move on.

Leto says, "I walked inside thinking I was gonna rip some posters off the wall. Some guy came in next to me and he had on an old leather jacket and you could tell he used to hang there. He said, 'Oh man, this is so sad. I can't believe this. I'm gonna rip something off the wall.' As he did, I just stood there looking around and then some people booted me out of there."
