The Zenith Passage drummer Luis Martinez got caught on camera stealing an e-cigarette belonging to an employee from the Lookout Lounge in Omaha, NE after having played a show with The Faceless at the venue earlier in the evening. The incident was caught on camera and Lambgoat have shared some footage of it. The employee, identified as ‘Walter‘, commented:
“Someone from The Zenith Passage came in my place of employment at roughly 12:40am on tuesday looking for a lost wallet. In the process they STOLE my electronic cigarette, which retailed at well over a hundred dollars. I am angry. I have video evidence. Fuck liars, fuck thieves. Share this so promoters and fans know who they are dealing with.”
The Faceless themselves apologized:
“Walter, we are incredibly sorry for that member of The Zenith Passage‘s behavior. We had nothing to do with this, but we feel bad that it happened to you. Stealing is NOT something that we condone. We would like to purchase a new electronic cigarette for you, and give you free tickets to our next show in your city. Please email our manager, and we will send you money for a new electronic cigarette.”
Martinez also apologized for his actions:
“I take responsibility for my actions and deeply apologize. As was said I was black out drunk with no memory of what happened even though thats still no excuse and isnt a good judgement of my character. As we all know when people get black out drunk their judgement and decisions are no longer in the hands of your logical self.
I’d also like to apologize to the venue and all of you just a mistake made by impaired judgement. Walter and I have made amends and have made arrangements to clear things up. The Faceless had nothing to do with this neither did my band mates.”
