A physical altercation between Alpha Wolf and security played out during the band’s show at the Warfield in San Francisco, CA last night, October 30th. According to a fan claiming to be involved in the incident, he was was injured going over the rail while crowdsurfing.

In the below footage, said fan appears to have hit his head on the stage riser while going over the barricade, while also being dumped to the floor without security catching him. The band’s vocalist Lochie Keogh appeared to take issue with the guard that did not catch said concertgoer and thus intervened, grabbing at security, who then pulled Keogh off the front of the stage.

Seeing this unfold, members of the Australian metalcore band charged to the front of the stage to back up their bandmate. This all transpired amid the closing song of the set, “Akudama“. The fan injured in the incident, stated of the matter:

“crowdsurfed during @alphawolfcvlt ‘Akudama’ and security didn’t even try to catch me. i hit my head on the barricade and sprained my ankle, Lochie got upset at security and the guard decided to pull him down from the stage along with some stage lights, resulting in the end of their set and this altercation. Love you guys @mangekyo.u @sabianlynch”

Per riffmagazine.com, the security guard involved in the incident with Alpha Wolf vocalist Lochie Keogh has been placed on investigative leave.

Fuck crowd surfers, they deserve everything that happens to them, and security has no obligation to protect them. I've never gotten in a fight at a show yet walked out of three different shows over the years with a black eye because of some asshole crowd surfer. I've had them use my shoulder to boost themselves up, taken more elbows and boots to the head than I can count and laughed my ass off every time they've taken a spill or gotten themselves thrown out. I don't know who this band is but they're in the wrong and the crowd surfer who expected security to catch him is a crybaby bitch. I hope he lands on his head next time.
