The outrageous on-stage antics of a brass band’s frontwoman who was caught on video urinating on a fan’s face during a performance in Florida last week has prompted at least one disgusted audience member to call the police.
Sophia Urista, the lead singer for the cover band Brass Against, was in the middle of a set during the Welcome to Rockville concert in Daytona last Thursday when she announced to the crowd that she needed to go to the bathroom and couldn’t wait any longer.
Instead of leaving the stage, or peeing her pants, the 36-year-old dragged up a male fan from the audience, got him to lie down on the stage at a concert in Daytona, Florida, on Thursday night and relieved herself over him.
The X-rated display led an audience member named Nicole Shields to dial 911 on Saturday and report the incident to a county dispatcher, saying that her underage child witnessed Urista’s very public bathroom break.
According to the Daytona Beach Police Department’s records obtained by DailyMail.com, Shields ‘stated that the lead singer urinated on someone on stage, she is wondering if there are remifications [sic] for this as her 16-year-old was there and saw it live.’
Police spokesperson Messod Bendayan said that investigators tried calling the complainant back twice but received no response. As a result, no police report was filed and no charges were pending against Urista.
Under Florida law, indecent exposure is a first-degree misdemeanor that carries a punishment of up to a year in jail or a $1,000 fine.

The concert took place at Daytona International Speedway, which is operated by NASCAR. In the aftermath of the scandal sparked by Urista’s conduct, Brass Against has been banned from all NASCAR venues.
‘Daytona International Speedway doesn’t condone the inappropriate actions that took place during Thursday’s Welcome to Rockville event,’ NASCAR spokesman Russell Branham said in a statement to the The Daytona Beach News Journal.
Prior to answering the nature’s call in full view of the audience, Urista was quoted by the site Consequence Heavy as saying: ‘get my man with the can on his head ready, ’cause we’re going to bring him onstage and I’mma p*** in this motherf***er’s mouth.’
She then added: ‘I gotta pee, and I can’t make it to the bathroom,’ she exclaimed to concertgoers. ‘So we might as well make a show out of it.’
Urista then hurriedly pulled down her pants and underwear crouching down to pee.
The singer didn’t hold back as she emptied the contents of her bladder all over the man’s bald head and face.
From footage shot by fans and subsequently leaked on social media, he seemed to be enjoying the experience as he moved his head back and forth as Urista’s urine fell about him.
All the while, she managed to keep singing a rendition of Rage Against The Machine’s, Wake Up.
Many on social media were shocked by the act with one describing it as ‘pure trash.’

‘This is devilish. Truly the world is coming to an end,’ one Twitter user wrote.
‘Disgusting….’ another added. ‘I think they both got some mental issues.’
‘That would count as indecent exposure and a criminal offense surely?’ said another online poster.

‘That’s most punk rock thing I’ve seen in a long time. Keep up the great work. I’m going to have to catch the act.’
The band, Brass Against, later took to Twitter to apologize for Urista’s behavior saying she got ‘carried away.’
‘We had a great time last night at Welcome to Rockville. Sophia got carried away. That’s not something the rest of us expected, and it’s not something you’ll see again at our shows. Thanks for bringing it last night, Daytona.’
