Police shut down concert at Walter’s

We weren’t there, but situation sounded like a total mess. Police were called to Walter’s on Washington Friday night after receiving a noise complaint from a nearby resident . When the lone officer arrived onto the scene, an altercation took place on stage with the lead singer of Two Gallants. The crowd was stunned at what was going on, which you can see in the video above.

David Cobb has a great post about the incident at his site, Houston Calling. The police officer discharged his taser gun three times during the brawl. The concert-goers account seems to differ greatly from HPD’s account on what took place at the show.

Listening to Two Gallants’ music, it doesn’t seem like the type of show that would conjure up a noise complaint. However, with all of the new townhomes in the area, we could see why this would be a new problem for the venue. If you’re buying a home next to a concert venue, what would you expect?
