Re: ANTON????

I've been wondering the same thing.  Anyone have any info?

Re: ANTON????

Given the lack of response, it would appear that nobody knows what the Anton situation is.
Certainly no clues on his website.
Possibly he’s going back to doing the studio work rather than touring?

Re: ANTON????

Knowing what the "Excited States" is like,
Maybe he's an anti-masker anti-shot person and Joe's not having him touring.
Just a guess though

Re: ANTON????

yeah hopefully he will be back touring one of these days...couldn't find any insight on his facebook or twitter etc but he did participate in this https://whyhunger.org/drum/?fbclid=IwAR … 5dIcmwRMkU
to raise money to fight hunger

everything is still all messed up and unpredictable because of the ongoing pandemic so I figure it is possible he will be back touring at a later date

Re: ANTON????

Interesting...
He has changed band members over the years, leaves one always why(??)
But over all, I go see Joe play guitar the way I can't
