“The owner, Vinnie Brand disrespected me and did something that I told him not to do, and I can’t perform under those circumstances,” he claimed.

According to TMZ the owner took to the stage before Pete and told the crowd not to heckle about Ariana Grande and Kate Beckinsale, which he claimed were the “ground rules” Pete set out.

The comedian allegedly had asked Vinnie not to do an opening set before Pete.

The outlet also shared a video of Vinnie showing the comedian’s Instagram Story to the crowd after he cancelled the gig and said: “No way in the world would I ever disrespect any comedian.”
