Hemorage once again found themselves in trouble with law enforcement after staging another one of their now-infamous guerrilla performances over the weekend.
The San Francisco crossover thrash outfit reportedly set up an impromptu show in a gas station parking lot near the Shoreline Waterfront in Long Beach, California, taking advantage of the large crowds gathered for the latest stop of the Vans Warped Tour.
As footage circulating online shows, authorities quickly responded to the unauthorized performance, bringing the set to an abrupt end and placing members of the band in handcuffs. Local reports indicate that the U-Haul truck used as the band’s mobile stage and gear transport was subsequently towed and impounded.
Videos from the incident have since spread across social media, capturing the moment officers shut down the performance and escorted members of the group away from the scene.
For longtime followers of the band, the incident will sound familiar. Hemorage have built a reputation around staging spontaneous performances in unconventional locations, often without official approval. In 2024, the band made headlines after a similar parking lot performance outside a Korn concert also drew a police response.
At the time of publication, Hemorage have not issued an official statement regarding the arrests or the impoundment of their equipment. However, the band has been reposting footage of the incident through their Instagram Stories, seemingly embracing the chaos surrounding the latest stunt.
