Canadian police officer goes to house party to break up jam sesh, plays drums instead

Members of Toronto-based rock band Vinyl Ambush feared their private gig would be shut down after police showed up to a party they were playing on Saturday. But much to their surprise, the Peel Regional Police officers didn't break up the jam sesh, they joined in.

According to a local report from Canada's City News, after receiving a noise complaint, cops showed up to the party and came to an agreement that the band would turn down the noise and stop playing by 9:30 p.m. That seemed pretty chill, but when the police returned later that night, the teen rockers were sure they were in trouble.

"I dropped my guitar, put it down and moved away," the band’s guitarist Pedro Alvarado told the publication, but much to his surprise police officer Constable Clark just wanted to hop on drums.

Sporting his police uniform and sunglasses on head, Clark rocked along to the band's song, "Curiosity" as though he had played with them for years.

Before the officers departed, they shared some epic words of wisdom with the musicians. "Don't stop regardless of what people tell you."

What. A. Night.
