Hemorage have once again run afoul of the authorities with their latest impromptu U-Haul performance. This past weekend saw the San Francisco, CA crossover band set up shop in a gas station parking lot near the Shoreline Waterfront in Long Beach, CA, taking advantage of the influx of concertgoers attending the ‘Vans Warped Tour‘ stop
However, authorities responded en masse, putting an end to the set and taking the band into custody in cuffs. According to local reports, the U-Haul truck filled with the band’s gear that was used for the set was towed away and impounded. See below for footage of the arrests.
This is by no means the first time Hemorage have encountered such resistance to their guerilla live performances, a similar stunt in 2024 outside of a Korn show also saw police respond. While the band have yet to issue a public statement on the matter, an assortment of footage from the incident has been reposted on their Instagram story.
Update: July 28th, 2026 03:04pm:
The band have since checked in with the following update:
“We played a show outside Warped Tour on Saturday (7/25). Shortly after, over a dozen police cars pulled up and we were arrested.
We spent the night in jail, our truck was towed, and all of our gear was seized. The police department is holding everything as part of an “investigation” until 8/4, when we’re supposed to be able to pick it up. There’s a camera in the truck, so we’ll see if it’s still there when we get everything back.
We were all released Sunday morning, and everyone’s all good.
Our new EP “Dead Head” drops August 10.”
