have kicked off the remainder of their UK and Ireland co-headlining tour after an incident between the two bands' frontmen. AAF singer Dryden Mitchell has taken to social media to inform fans CKY would not perform on any of the remaining 16 tour dates this month. Mitchell claims CKY's Chad I Ginsburg punched him in the face, adding that it is the latest in a string of incidents.
The two bands had completed a run of shows across mainland Europe before hitting the UK and Ireland, where the current leg of the tour kicked off in Margate on Saturday, November 9. Promising to refund tickets for any fans who wanted their money back, Mitchell says: "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 upended the table in the dressing room and threw his phone, and then cancelled their show.
"Well, he punched me in the face and pretty much ran away like I imagine he’ll do for all of his future problems. ’m grateful for my sobriety and grateful that I didn’t retaliat.
