A dump truck crashed into the iconic Whisky a Go Go music venue on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood on Friday (May 9). The collision, which involved five vehicles and a power pole, occurred around 1:40 p.m. and resulted in a power outage in the surrounding area as well as a cancellation of the scheduled show that night by headliners Boy Hits Car. “Well… that was wild,” Boy Hits Car wrote on Instagram. “Yesterday, just hours before we were set to headline at the legendary Whisky A Go Go, a dump truck crashed into the venue. Our show was unfortunately canceled as a result, but the scene quickly turned surreal. ABC7 News and KCAL were there on the spot, and next thing you know, we’re doing interviews for TV instead of soundcheck.” Despite the frightening incident, no serious injuries were reported, and efforts to restore power were immediately underway. The beloved venue – famous for hosting legendary acts such as The Doors, Janis Joplin, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, and Mötley Crüe – planned to reopen by the following day. (Billboard)
