Riot at SOAD Toxicity Album Release Event
A riot broke out at an album release event for Toxicity in Los Angeles, California. Much of System of a Down's gear was stolen or destroyed. One of Odadjian's speaker cabinets was found on Hollywood & Vine.According to Shavo himself, System of a Down was scheduled to play a free show in the parking lot of Club Vinyl. However, a rock radio DJ at KROQ made an an air announcement informing listeners about the show which encouraged way more people to show up than the venue was equipped to handle. Fire Marshals shut the event down do to safety concerns and would not allow the band to address the fans. Instead, they promptly escort the band out of the area. When authorities began pulling down System of a Down's stage banner without any explanation, the crowd became a mob and started doing things that mobs do, like riot and destroy local property.As Shavo explains: “We were on the news on every channel... They had shots from above where we were supposed to be playing and there were people fighting with our crew. My bass tech was throwing fists trying to protect my gear and there’s people swinging at each other. A pipe hit one of our guys in the face and broke all his teeth. It was crazy.The press went crazy with it, so our little band became a bit bigger... It was, like, ‘This band of Armenians are causing a riot in LA and they have an album coming out tomorrow.’” - Odadjian, System Of A Down's Toxicity, Morat, Metal Hammer (June 5, 2020)
