The Filipino rock group Kamikazee faced expulsion from their scheduled performance at the Kasanggayahan Festival in Casiguran, Sorsogon due to alleged behavioral issues, as stated by the governor.
Sorsogon Governor Boboy Hamor made an announcement shortly before the band's Sunday night performance, expressing regret and explaining the situation: "I apologize, but Kamikazee's performance will not proceed. Regrettably, we have no choice but to take this action due to certain attitude problems."

Hamor revealed that the governor decided not to accommodate the band at the Recidencia Del Hamor hotel and promptly arranged for their departure to the airport following the incident. Furthermore, he declared that Kamikazee would not be allowed to return to the province, emphasizing, "They will not be permitted to return to Sorsogon. We cannot tolerate disrespect towards the people of Sorsogon."
According to Dong Mendoza, the Public Information Officer of Sorsogon, the governor became upset when Kamikazee declined to participate in a photo session at the 16,000 blue roses attraction. Although the band had initially agreed to take part, they failed to appear at the venue on the scheduled day.
Kamikazee was originally set to perform alongside other local acts, including Imago and I Belong To The Zoo. They are best known for their hit song "Narda" and consist of members Jay Contreras, Jomal Linao, Led Tuyay, Jason Astete, Allan Burdeos, Jian Lubiano, and Mikki Jill.
As of now, the band has yet to issue a statement regarding the incident.
