  • Incident with Chad Ginsburg of CKY in Margate, UK

    Incident with Chad Ginsburg of CKY in Margate, UK

    Everything you need to know about today’s Chad Ginsburg (CKY) incident, here’s a quote from Dryden Mitchell:

    Sadly, Chad from CKY hasn’t figured out how to cohabitate with others after all these years. They will no longer be on the Alien Ant Farm Tour through the rest of the UK shows after Chad punched me in the face earlier today. I’ve watched him treat multiple crew members and opening band members like trash through the Europe shows and cause general drama around our camp.

    Before the last Europe shows I went to Chad and asked if he had any issues with anyone specifically and if he wanted to have a meeting with the whole crew and bands to discuss what’s going on, he up ended the table in the dressing room and threw his phone, and then cancelled their show….

    Today we still had business things to square away and I told his manager what a problem Chad was being, verbally, as well as fuckin up the bus with all of his messes every day for other people to clean up… Well he punched me in the face and pretty much ran away like I imagine he’ll do for all of his future problems. I’m grateful for my sobriety and grateful that I didn’t retaliate physically in any way whatsoever. I would love these shows to continue and apologize to all the CkY fans for Chad’s behavior.

    We have zero hard feelings for Jess and Elvis in CKY and are gutted to see them go, but I will never knowingly put myself in volatile situations so this had to end.

    After suffering a C1 And C2 Fusion (Spinal Fracture) From a Bus Crash years ago, I hope that everything is ok in that area. Shows will continue without CKY, and we hope everyone still wants to come enjoy positive evenings with us, including CKY fans. If you don’t, we understand and refunds will be issued accordingly. Stay safe everybody. And Chad, Go To The Gym… After That, Find A Therapist, And Maybe In 25 Years… We Can Shake Hands. Until Then Though…. GET HELP.

    Love Dryden

  • Happy Alien Ant Farm Day Everyone!!!

    The 15th June is a significant date in the calendar for the band and us fellow Ant Fans. Not only is it Dryden’s birthday today (Happy Birthday Dude) it also marks the anniversary of their first ever live show. This evening, 27 years ago AAF took to the stage at The Barn in Riverside, CA to play a 9 song set including S.S. Recognize, Wish, Orange Appeal and my personal favourite Games Galore.

    Luckily the whole show was filmed and recently uploaded to YouTube by the Bassadilla himself, Tye. To celebrate the occasion I have embedded the show below:

    If anyone can solve the mystery to what title song 4 (around the 12 minute mark) is please come forward 😂. Also, if anyone was in the crowd that night we would love to hear your stories from the evening.

    P.S Thank you Tye for converting those old tapes to digital. Throwing a coin in the Wishin Well.

    P.S.S Being the geek I am I tried to fit all the name variations of AAF’s song Wish from their first demo tape dubbed $100 EP into the post. I was clutching at straws on the last one lol but managed to get them all in.

  • AAF in car accident

    Here’s what Dryden posted earlier today on his Facebook wall:

    Update: Here’s an update from Terry:


    Important things to have in matter when you are in an accident. You can check out official site CGG Law Firm for better assistance. Immediately after the accident, stop the car as soon as possible, check for injuries to yourself or your passengers, try to remain calm as much as possible. Remember is normal to be shaken after an accident so take a few breaths and try to take stock of the situation the best you can. 

    One thing to keep in mind, and i thought about this meticulously, that often in accidents they can devastate your financial situation just with the injuries and the damage of the car, so obtaining a car loan is a good option for everyone. Complete auto loans can help you with advise and options for this, you can find them in their reddit, tumbler, facebook and obviously the main page, and they offer the best service in car loans. 

    You can take notes of this steps and if necessary remember to exchange information with the third person if there is and document all the accident, and then you can call your insurer.
