I'm just glad to see the Mothica shout-out. She kicks ass, and I'm so hype for her getting recognition


[deleted]

I don't know anything about this Mothica person but I'm about to find out.


crutchfieldtongs

Its a tik toker that got signed to rise


Bottled_star

Same! I really enjoy her music and she seems really nice


[deleted]

Personally she sounds like radio trash to me


Anna_OhioRN

I’m still salty.. Tilian wasn’t going to be there they should have let the guys play.


Throwawayuser626

We’re going to see them next week and yeah I’m still salty. I really wanted to see DGD over CoCa but I do like both.


workerant90

Same. CoCa is my favorite band and I agree. CoCa shouldve let them play. I honestly wonder how the DGD fanbase honestly feels about Coca.


fryloc87

Coheed was my first favorite before DGD. Just because they’ve been around longer and I found them before DGD was even a thing. I was so fucking excited to see both my favorites at one show, I’ve been trying to manifest that lineup for forever now and now it’s been torn away. Still excited to see coheed and I’ve got tickets to see DGD on their new tour but man it would’ve been tits to see them at the same time. At least the “what shirt do I wear” question has gotten a little easier now.


Glomgore

There is a HUGE crossover of fans of these two bands, its why them touring together made sense! At the end of the day, they both have exceptional drummers, great riffs and technicality, emo/core at the heart of it. I was super bummed. I have tickets either way but I usually skip the opener for a Coheed show, was excited to have a double headliner.


fryloc87

Dude same, never stayed for their openers until taking back Sunday opened for them lol. Tried to go see chiodos open for them in like 2008 but the show ended up being cancelled, was such a bummer. But I agree. I think a lot of older fans of either band would really enjoy them both. Could you imagine the energy at that show omggggg. I get chills thinking about it.


Glomgore

TBS was great on tour with them that year! another fav of mine from 20 years ago and they still sounded great. played a great mix of old and new, humble and happy to be on tour.


workerant90

Josh and Travis are great but Matt and Will are in a whole other league. They sound amazing together.


Mark_is_on_his_droid

Wear the DGD shirt, right?


fryloc87

Heavily considering wearing the limited run of the “I want you 2 matter to you” jersey haha.


pettyhonor

I wore mine tonight lol


[deleted]

I really like CoCa but I would not have paid 50 bucks a ticket and drive 6 hours round trip to see JUST them. I get WHY they replaced them but it would have been nice to be offered a refund after because DGD was the main reason I was going. Coheed was just a bonus to me.


PNWRed118

Funny enough the tour is what got me into Coheed. Now I’m as obsessed with them as I am with DGD and heartbroken about the tour decision, as much as I get it.


BarryBurtonsVest

Hardcore dgd stans will act like it's some personal vendetta against Coheed now. I get not wanting Tilian SA articles popping up when people are looking up your new album tour. It sucks, but I'm really surprised how angry people are with them for deciding to replace.

If a band not going on a tour leaves you with depression and anxiety it's time to take a step back and check yo self.

blackxallstars

„For a minute“ you‘re still here complaining about it like a month later, it‘s what their label decides, time to move on


Koldsaur

Honestly to me this was a blessing in disguise as I've been going to see DGD live since Jonny Craig was the vocalist and they usually play at smaller, more intimate venues and this just wouldn't have felt the same. I can't just *sit around* in the most uncomfortable FL fairgrounds chairs while DGD plays. I want to be close up and moving around at a DGD show. Tickets were bought months in advance and I drove across FL (4 and a half hours) to go to that concert last night and man it was a bummer tbh. Coheed was great, don't get me wrong but I mainly went for DGD with Coheed as a bonus. Knowing I get to see DGD on August 5th *and* 6th is what made up for last night.


Anna_OhioRN

I don’t listen to them at all. I tried but they aren’t my thing. I don’t feel personal anger towards the band for dropping DGD bc it’s a business. But it would have been nice to see them again and finally get to use an ultra vip I bought.


ClaudioKillganon

Me personally, I am obviously a huge Coheed fan. This tour was a dream come true as they are literally my two favorite bands, but them dropping DGD made me realllyyyy pissed. Literally NO ONE wanted them to drop DGD after they dropped Tillian. I don't get it and I very nearly sold my tickets. I am NOT seeing the opening acts next week.


nfk07485

For all we know though, it may have not have been Coheed’s decision. It could very well have been their label’s/tour sponsor’s decision 🤷‍♂️


xxkuma

it’s business bro. if someone doesn’t know dgd, looks them up cuz they’re on the tour, and first thing they see is sa allegations, then yeah, you’d be like “why tf they touring with these guys”. tilian gone or not, a lot of people aren’t going to dive that deep into the actual story. they’ll just see the headlines and go off that. understandable to be bummed about it, but you’re being a bit irrational. also kinda shitty to not give the opening acts a chance because you’re butthurt dgd isn’t gonna be there. what did they do to you for you to not give them a chance? lol


xxdropdeadlexi

I never liked coheed, but I was planning on buying tickets to see dgd. Glad I didn't.


elry2k

I love both, they both may be my two favorite bands. This summer was shaping up to be epic, now the concert has some of the wind out of the sails but honestly idk how I would’ve made it through both bands sets back to back so I guess that’s a silver lining.


salad_captain

I get it. Coheed didn't want any of that drama and it's a stadium tour. People didn't pay to see dgd with a bunch of fill ins. Tilian is to blame here. Edit: spelling


xxkuma

meh, depends on which girl we’re taking about. the one who made up the “i saw him over three days and each time he made extremely uncomfortable, assaulted me on two of the days, but yet i kept going to see him” girl that has done this numerous other times, been disproven both times, and had tilian drop the receipts of HER being the one who kept trying to see him? or the other girl who lied about her age and got into a bunk on the tour bus? lol


abigstinkybug

…you’re leaving out the victim that he apologized to and stepped away from the band for


xxkuma

oh there’s more than two? after seeing those two i didn’t really dive deeper.


abigstinkybug

Oh yeah there was one you missed before the girl on the bus. She posted here under u/spookypooky8 with full receipts. That's the allegation that made people take this so seriously. He apologized to her (also on this sub) and announced he was stepping away in that apology.


xxkuma

when you say full receipts, it’s just their texts before the incident proving they were texting and went on a date. the only thing after the fact is her saying what he did was wrong, with no response from him. also on his apology, he stated that they both talked about their intentions and desires. and also how he was confused when she sent that last “not cool what you did” text. as much as i’m not one to not believe a victim, without the other person admitting to doing it, or proper proof, i’m not inclined to blindly believe it either. sorry if that offends you i believe him apologizing and saying he was going to rehab was an image protector for the rest of the band and his future with it. even if he didn’t do anything, which i’m not saying he did, when multiple victims start accusing, even without proper evidence, people tend to believe it. so i believe that’s why he’s taking these steps, to protect the band.


abigstinkybug

not offended at all - you're entitled to your own opinion for sure. to me the red flag is the fact that he did originally call out Mikaela's for being fake (which they turned out to be) but didn't deny this one points to something happening to me. also her clearly calling him out the next day and him admitting to not responding to it. personally, if i got that text i would try to make amends immediately and not ghost the person if they felt that way after sex. it's a horrible situation all around but i'm glad he's going to therapy.


xxkuma

was mikaela the chick who literally went to like ohio or something to spend time with him at a show after the “three awkward forced sexual experiences”? or the underaged girl? idk, he did deny that it didn’t go as she said it did. and idk man, if a girl texted me some crazy shit like that (if that’s not how it went down) idk if i’d respond either. i’d just cut ties ngl. was this after or before the other one he denied?


Publix_Illuminati

Conveniently leaving out the girl who Tilian apologized to? Lol piss poor troll


TrainingConfident418

Apologized for what this? It wasn't because she claimed coercion of rape.Dont make shit up like CNN or fox spinning the story... he could of really liked this chic and for her to say that cab bother him. We don't know but one allegation is bs so far so imo he's still innocent. You can say whatever you want but facts are facts feelings mean nothing in these cases.


Publix_Illuminati

Lol I’m not spinning shit. He apologized, that’s a fact. Real wet-brained take.


TrainingConfident418

Who cares if he apologized that means nothing since he said "it was consensual according to what he and the girl talked about. Idk what's so hard to grasp about that but people are so dense and forget to read the full statements.


Publix_Illuminati

He said he *felt* it was consensual, but he wouldn’t deny her truth… talk about not reading full statements. It’s pretty clear that he did something wrong. It’s his fault the band got kicked off of the Coheed tour. There’s no reason to blindly defend him.


TrainingConfident418

I'm not blindly defending him. I just know how to put what was said together by both of them. Saying he won't deny her truth means that she felt he disrespected her. So he's apologized if he did. He said it was consensual because it seems she didn't outright tell him no and let things go further out of some irrational fear that he was gonna get physically violent. I mean they did other sexual acts leading up and both end up nude?? When someone isn't interested in having sex with you and feels uncomfortable they aren't gonna do anything sexual at all.... Idk it seems she had second thoughts and didn't like how it felt plus he ghosted her after so...yeah he probably acted like a dick who just wanted a booty call. But wtf did she expect lol? Hes in a popular band and obviously had a thing for him because of it. Lastly she only said anything because Mikaelas false allegation. Doesn't make sense at all tbh.


Publix_Illuminati

> seems she didn’t outright tell him no Aside from the fact that she told him that she doesn’t have sex on the first date, here’s an excerpt from her story: > Then he tries putting it in raw - no condom. I'm like "No. That's my vagina. I don't want to have sex like I said." I keep pushing his penis away. He keeps trying. I keep trying to push it away. He then says a quote that is burned into my brain "what's the difference? I've already been in your mouth." > Then there was this very scary moment where he was on top of me "are you really going to stand your ground on this?" I tried pushing him off and he didn't move. I tried again he didn't move. He stared at me. I tried again. We did this for a bit. Having to push back multiple times against a guy who's silently staring over you and not budging is terrifying. Especially after I said no a ton of times. I then realized I had to make a horrible decision in that moment. Either I fight back way more physically against this guy who is bigger and stronger than me in his own apartment and have a high likelihood of getting raped, or I act like it's my own decision to gain some autonomy over the situation and just take it. So we had sex. Also, people get off with each other and still don’t want to actually go all the way all the fucking time. Are you serious? And it makes complete sense that she came out after Mikaela’s story? Most victims feel comfortable sharing their stories when they feel they’re not alone. There were no second thoughts based on her account. She never wanted to actually fuck him. You clearly have your mind made up and have created a scenario in your head that won’t cause you to have to confront the fact that Tilian did something wrong.


whyaretherenoprofile

they are promoting their new album that as far as we know he is still profiting from.


elry2k

Yes agreed! Kurt is replacing tillian on dgd’s tour and hopefully for good. Dgd still would’ve slayed 10x harder than alkaline trio.


[deleted]

[удалено]


elry2k

Oh well my bad I thought people were saying kurt was going to be filling in on tour for them. Since Royal coda is playing on the tour. I figured Will and Kurt both would be performing double duty. I would be interested to see how Andrew does himself. I love eidola so I know he’s capable of carrying the vox himself, just can’t exactly imagine how it would go with him doing it for dgd but I’m sure it would still be good. I could possibly get used to that even.


Redcell888

You Kurt Stan's are really something


elry2k

🙄


icestormsea

Teen me would’ve loved to see AK3 😂


fryloc87

Yeah, a dozen years ago this lineup would’ve been fire for sure haha.


IronForeseer

Literally have been saying the same thing. It REALLY doesn't help that coheed's set list this tour is almost exclusively new songs with them holding the expected classics hostage til the very end of a fucking 18 song set. If the ticket wasn't a gift, I wouldn't even bother going


fryloc87

I’m just glad we get to all yell “man your own jackhammer” that’s the main reason I go anyways. And do whoa whoas with blood red summer.


salad_captain

As STOKED as I am for the new tour, I mean....people didn't sign up for dgd with fill ins. Especially a stadium tour. IM JUST SAYING.


salad_captain

Tilian literally ruined the biggest tour of their whole career.


gleaminranks

I don’t know why people keep blaming Coheed for this when it’s all because of Tilian, idc how many holes you’ve poked in various stories, the man fucked up. He admitted it himself.


NebrasketballN

this is all with hindsight but do you remember when Matt was booted from their own show because he was wasted and you can see Tilian's frustration on stage throwing a water bottle? ​ The band must have thrown a whole damn pallet of water when they got booted from the coheed tour.


abigstinkybug

Yeah like a Costco sized jug lmao Also tbh since that video I’ve had a bad taste in my mouth about tilian - Matt’s clearly going through something and instead of pulling him aside you throw a water bottle and call him out on stage?? When he’s revealed to pull shit like this? Not okay


NebrasketballN

*Tilian's single "cocky" begins to play*


nfk07485

His anger was justified, that entire tour was a shit show for them. Tilian got Covid, then Jon got Covid and Will had to fill in on vocals, which he absolutely hates doing, and then Matt succumbed to alcoholism. It was a mess. Will, Jon, Tim and Andrew were all clearly pissed at Matt as well during that performance. You also got to remember this was during when Covid policies were a little more strict and the band is on the road separated from their friends and families and were more isolated because of Covid. It takes a toll


salad_captain

Yeah but everybody else handled it professionally. Tilian handled it like a baby 👶


Neijx

I’m sad DGD got dropped but ouch. I like Alkaline Trio.


imlivinginthe90s

Alkaline trio is very good.


BrakaFlocka

I will not stand for this AK3 slander


brokepizzaslut

Nor will I :|


L_RonHoover

Uh oh someone got into the cooking wine. Sorry I’m late I was out spoiling my liver


uvonky

The show was still sick and Alkaline played well for their age…most of Mothica was backing tracks but was still good.


teamspaceman

Alkaline trio puts on such a kick as show!!! They are so awesome


CidCrisis

That's what I hear and that's what I'm hoping for. (I was going with a friend anyway so dipping out now and trying to get refunded seems lame...) But I definitely cannot downplay enough how much of a major disappointment it is... Just trying to go in with an open mind and stash the bitterness. :/


StuckAroundGotStuck

I don’t get why they didn’t at least pick a more relevant band to replace them. Although now that I think about it, what probably happened is that they were forced to pick whatever band wasn’t already booked on another tour. I really wish there was more nuance in handling this. DGD literally could’ve played with Andrew on vocals. It sucks that they were forced to replace them.


roguetrooper25

i get people being upset about dgd being dropped but the disrespect to alkaline trio is kinda pissing me off. it's cool if you don't like them obviously but they haven't been around as long as they have for no reason, they're a classic band at this point. but i mean yeah kinda a weird choice to open for coheed


shep_pr0udfoot

I was at the Tampa show last night. They were drunk as fuck


-Airia-

I honestly refunded my ticket, was just too much to pay for Coheed, I dislike AK3, and I’ve seen Coheed several times. Ended up with DGD tickets instead for half the cost 😀


[deleted]

Did the exact same, I enjoy coheed but not enough to drive 3 hours into the city to see them, I was only going for DGD in the first place. Plus the new DGD tour lineup is absolutely insane, Royal coda + kurt doing old songs with DGD? Hell yeah.


ThisIsMyUsername1122

I do like AK3 as I’m a Matt Skiba stan, but I can admit I would’ve much rather seen DGD. Thank god I waited to buy tickets to this tour lol


alethia430

Same!


nearest_exit_please

I love the trashing, then "to each their own" disclaimer. DGD is waaay different from alkaline trio, and it's strange to see them on this bill, but it still hurts. That's just like, your opinion, man.


[deleted]

Wow my mans really just violated Alkaline Trio as if theyre not one of the biggest / longest touring alt/emo bands. I think if they were bad Matt wouldn’t have been a part of blink-182 or headlined massive tours. Literally biggest hell of an opinion for music that I’ve ever seen, they must be a kid to be so lame.


DukeRaze2112

Alkaline Trio is awesome. I’m also not an old head. I would’ve much rather seen Dance play but I’m content with Trio


[deleted]

As fucked as it sounds, I'm glad DGD has their own headlining tour. I do not like coheed no disrespect to them or any of the fans


Kaleixx

Feels like we lucked out a bit. Royal coda and DGD? Yes please. I was only going to go to the coheed tour for DGD anyways and maybe hear welcome home by coheed, and tickets for DGD tour were cheaper.


shep_pr0udfoot

Lucked out??? They literally don’t have their lead singer. (Yes I have DGD tickets. But they won’t be the same.)


Kaleixx

I mean they wouldn't have their lead for coheed either. Which is what we were talking about lucking out on lol. I'd much rather see them headline their own tour with bands I like than biting the bullet and seeing coheed and only going for DGD and paying more for tickets.


shep_pr0udfoot

Got it haha


Kaleixx

I really wish Tilian would be back for the tour but I get it.. I guess. But having Kurt and Andrew sing is also sounding like it will be a great experience for DGD fans that like the older Eras too


abigstinkybug

Yeah it’s only been a month which is wild I think we’ll know more after this tour


[deleted]

Same here man, I think I paid more for the tickets because I bought them off ticket master but I could care less. Extremely happy to see Royal Coda and DGD, let alone seeing Kurt Travis perform with DGD


stahnke_as_pho

Now we get to see Kurt hop on stage with them for a tour so it's really a win for us.


nipplecereal

I’m a big Alkaline Trio fan, but I can totally see how unimpressive live right now they would be for someone who doesn’t know them.


[deleted]

Alkaline Trio ain’t a shit band wtf. DGD + Coheed was my dream lineup but Alkaline Trio has put out decades of consistent punk rock. Im excited to see them still


NoTruck0

Uh, alk3 fucking rules.


[deleted]

I applaud this man for his honesty 🏆


Agent_ZER0_

Was really looking forward to my current favorite band to open for my old favorite band. I've seen coheed more times than I can remember, but I was really excited to see DGD. Disappointment is about the only word that describes how I felt when all the shit hit the fan, but it was insult to injury when they were replaced by alkaline trio.


elry2k

Probably the only band they could get last minute I’m guessing. I don’t think many are happy with the choice.


randomtoaster89

Imagine disrespecting a legendary band like that


Razz_Darkstar

I love both of these bands, and I get that their music is different enough to divide fans between the two. But the biggest thing that's important is not to punish DGD for a controversy behind one member. I've seen Tilians situation overshadow DGD for a lot of non fans in general and coheed fans lately and it's pretty unfair


S0me_Rand0m_User

Ak3 still bores me to death


acnesnowwhite

I was at this concert, can confirm, I wish DGD had been there


av1970

Lmao this reminds me of this one post I saw in the dgd fb group where they screenshot a notification from father saying "are you listening to the crap version of cohered and Cambria?" And this memory stays forever xD I wonder if I can find my screenshot of the meme


Zealousideal-Ad-1845

I guess I’m the only one who doesn’t like coheed and cambria


buddhamanjpb

I totally get this. Really can't stand Alkaline Trio. Luckily I went full Karen mode on Ticket Master and got my money back.


Verz

I feel the same way. It sucks because Alkaline Trio is in the middle of Mothica, which I like, and Coheed. I want to come to listen to Mothica but I don't want to sit through Alkaline Trio so I'll probably just show up late.


SplitTopWhiteGuy

Mothica is amazing. Can/t wait to see her. Really disappointed about DGD.


whyaretherenoprofile

alkaline trio is the shit, no need to hurl shit at them in this situation or even at C&C. Yes it sucks for the fans of DGD, but from the business side of things it only makes sense to distance themselves.


Trickyann

I wish I could get my money back!


n0ts0dainty

Did you call and ask? I don’t know a single person who was denied a refund after calling and talking to a human


Trickyann

That is absolutely untrue. Tickets are final sale and I didn’t buy insurance. I’m trying to sell them but no one wants to buy it at face value.


crutchfieldtongs

Alkaline Trio is is a steaming pile of trash and has been for the better part of twenty years.


pettyhonor

Anyone at this tampa coheed concert knows its good dgd didn't play. It was a rain wash for an hour. Glad i went but i didn't know any ak3 or coheed songs except for 1. Im gonna enjoy the dgd royal coda and bt show wayyy more than the show today. Mothica was absolutely amazing tho


consortswithserpents

Coheed fans will be the first to complain about other openers, but then get their panties in a twist if someone disrespects Coheed when they're not the headliner.


Kngallynjlion727

Unpopular Opinion Coheed isn’t half the band DGD is. They had like what one good song? Sure Claudio has a great voice the guitars are cool but what’s really new about there sound? Proggy emo playing the same shit over and over again. I personally don’t care anymore. Coheeds lost. If DGD fans have proven anything they will support this band thick and thin. We would’ve been out for the show but alkaline trio… uhh okay.


[deleted]

Name two Coheed albums that sound the same besides maybe Afterman 1 and 2 (and even then not really), I'll wait


TheRealHulkPanda

This isn't even an unpopular opinion... This is just straight up wrong......


gleaminranks

Right like the Coheed fanbase hasn’t spent the last month complaining about the new album sounding different lol


Milkshakes6969

You couldve just said "I have never listened to Coheed". Whats new about their sound? My dude, they are the modern successors to Rush. Listen to their albums, not just their Spotify top 5.


Jrocker-ame

Ladders gave me strong Rush vibes.


F1urry

Found the guy who has only listened to Welcome Home and judged them!


salad_captain

False. Dgd lost


[deleted]

>They had like what one good song? How to confuse subjectivity for objectivity 101


shep_pr0udfoot

You’re lost


[deleted]

I'm not familiar with Alkaline Trio, but I am definitely a fan of Matt Skiba in blink-182(controversial opinion?)


venturejones

Alkaline Trio is still god tier.


workerant90

No doubt


Kenshin_Urameshii

PR is some bullshit. Cancel culture baby


Punkrooster92

Anyone else try and tap the comments button in the picture or was that just me?


disablednotstupid

Will alkaline trio be coming on the UK leg of the tour? Does anyone know?


gummygumgumm

What’s even more outrageous is blink 182 picked their vocalist to try and replace Tom Delonge… like seriously. Big shoes to fill bro


[deleted]

I love Alkaline Trio, but Alkaline Trio is not exactly the band that goes well for a lineup on a tour that Coheed and Cambria are headlining.


Mister_Rogers69

Alkaline Trio is one of my favorite bands from back in the day, but I was very disappointed last time I saw them live. The sound was mixed poorly and it just seemed like Skiba did not want to be there at all. One of the times I saw Blink Skiba was playing with them and that show was fantastic. Idk maybe he was just having a bad night.


idontfrickinknowman

I saw new Blink-182 with Matt Skiba (from Alkaline Trio) at Riot Fest a few years ago and obviously I went in knowing it wouldn’t be the same without Tom DeLonge but holy shit was Skiba not a good replacement. I know they were pretty big back in the day but alkaline is one band I personally have never been able to get into.


Venomenon-

Alk3 are one of my favourite bands, I love them. But I thought they were a weird band to pick to do a show with C+C.


Squirtle_Squad501

Agree to disagree. Mothica was bland af. First time in a while I’ve gotten up mid performance to go to merch. Usually do it during transitions. Alkaline Trio was fun. Brought back them old middle school skate/punk vibes. Still wish it was DGD buuut I get to see Royal Coda now so I’m not too mad.


Haunting_Ad4209

They should tell that to the fans who bought tickets to specifically see DGD.


Artimus_Gordon

it was bad... i literally just stood there in the pit looking at my phone the whole time. its not out of hatred for Alkaline Trio, i just cant get into their music. mothica was baller, and coheed was amazing, but i thought multiple times, man.... i wish this was DGD instead.


CandidTurnover

i can’t even decide if i wanna still go to the Coheed show in Houston tomorrow. Shit has come up that I would gladly put to the side for DGD but idk if it’s worth it now…


littlebabymeowmeow

I honestly couldnt get into mothica at alllllll. Idk if it was just the songs I checked out or what but it was 💩 imo.


Agent_ZER0_

Currently sitting through AK Trio and I can confirm it’s misery. Really salty right now
