This week, an intruder learned the hard way not to mess with nu-metal mainstays (hed)p.e. after the trespasser invaded the band’s tour bus, only to be taken down to the ground by (hed)p.e.’s tour manager, Josh “Crazy Ed” Edwards. The band shared a video of the takedown in action.
(hed)p.e. had just kicked off their “Bring Tha Noize” tour, and on Monday (Jan. 22) they were en route to Chico, California, when they stopped at a Walmart. It was then they noticed some men who were “casing our rig and trailer,” according to (hed)p.e.’s post..
Ed, the tour manager and crew member who’s an armed services veteran, proceeded to subdue the invader.
“F#ck around with HEDPE and find out,” the band said in a post on Tuesday (Jan. 23). “Hed pe security aint no joke haha.”
As the group explained, “We noticed that some guys were casing our rig and trailer at a Walmart. They were walking along the bus, taking too long to pass, and then doing repeated laps. A few minutes later one dude runs into the bus and swings on our crew guy. Thankfully our TM and crew man @crazy_ed is a combat vet and part superhero so he took him down and subdued him until the police arrived.”
