Brass Against have been reminded that they’re performing in a “no pee zone” on their current European tour with Tool.Last November, footage emerged of Brass Against singer Sophia Urista urinating on a willing fan’s face during the band’s set at the Welcome To Rockville festival in Daytona Beach, Florida.It was subsequently reported that local police were investigating the incident, as Urista may have broken indecent exposure laws. The group were also permanently banned from the venue in question (via Consequence).Later, the frontwoman issued an apology on social media and claimed that she’s “not a shock artist”.
“I have always pushed the limits in music and on stage,” Urista wrote. “That night, I pushed the limits too far.”She continued: “I love my family, the band, and the fans more than anything and I know that some were hurt or offended by what I did.
I apologise to them and want them to know that I didn’t mean to hurt them.”Last Saturday (April 23) saw Brass Against hit the road to begin their stint supporting Tool on their 2022 European tour.Upon arriving at the venue – the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, Denmark – Urista was greeted by a sign that’d been taped to the stage. It read: “NO PEE ZONE – No Urine Is To Be Deposited, Placed, Distributed, Sprinkled, Poured And/or Spread In This Immediate Area.”#tool #copenhagen pic.twitter.com/MW1hlwxh8C— sophia urista (@sophiaurista) April 24, 2022The singer shared an image of the message on her official Twitter profile, seemingly appreciating the funny side.
Urista captioned the snap with the hashtags #tool and #copenhagen. See the tweet above.Although it’s not been confirmed, the sign was presumably put there by known-practical jokers Tool.
