"When Indica finished her rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody," police directed patrons to exit the bar but did not explain why beyond saying it was a "compliance check." "We waited 30 minutes outside for them to inspect every crevice," Indica told QBurgh. But the patrons and performers refused to let the cops quash their spirit and instead created their own public performance space."
"Video captured during the wait shows the crowd belting Chappell Roan's Pink Pony Club while Indica dances up and down the sidewalk, collecting tips. "Guess what, divas?" she said when the performance ended. "This is why queer people have gotta stick the f*ck together in 2025... Make some noise for the queer people in your life everybody." The crowd cheered."
Police in bulletproof vests raided P Town Bar in Pittsburgh during a drag event, directing patrons to exit and calling the action a 'compliance check.' Drag artist Indica and trans model Amanda Lepore were performing when officers began gathering. Patrons waited about 30 minutes outside while officers inspected the venue. Performers and attendees turned the sidewalk into an impromptu stage, singing Chappell Roan's 'Pink Pony Club' as Indica danced and collected tips. Indica urged queer unity, declaring that queer people must stick together in 2025. Police later allowed 70 people to reenter after citing an overcapacity figure of 130.
