Stray From The Path had their “All Stars Tour” set at the Knitting Factory in Reno, NV cut short today, August 09th. The abbreviated performance came as a result of an altercation with security.
The band explained the situation via the following series of tweets earlier today:
“Sorry for our set getting cut short. We will not tolerate security guards grabbing kids by the throat for singing along. We will not tolerate our crew members getting assaulted by security guards when we stick up to defend our fans.
And then we get thrown out of the venue when we stick up for our people. And we had the whole venue against them. And then the security guards come out to challenge us to “dance” We will never tolerate assault on kids.
That’s someone’s son, brother, best friend. They don’t deserve that. Ever. We do what we do for the kids. Nobody else, ever.”
