Michael Todd , the bassist for the band Coheed and Cambria , was arrested for armed robbery after he allegedly held up a Walgreens by claiming he had a bomb ... and this all went down right before they played a show! According to police in Attleboro, MA ... Todd showed a pharmacist a cell phone note that said he had a bomb and demanded Oxycontin. He made off with six bottles of pain pill and fled via taxi.  But police say he was spotted in the cab and police were able to track it via the dispatcher ... to the Comcast Center where Coheed and Cambria were set to open up for Soundgarden . Police said Todd was arrested without incident after he was identified by the cab driver, the pharmacist and by store surveillance video. Todd was charged with armed robbery and unlawful possession of prescription narcotics. He is being held on $10,000 bail and will be arraigned on Monday morning.

Sorry for ya bud. Like your in a pretty big band and I'm sure you make enough money and know enough shady people that you could have just bought some.
But it is a disease and hard for people to kick.
But still dumb.
Just, not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
I said, I dont want it.
I just need it.
To breathe, to feel, to know Im alive.

    Geez, that is just totally bizarre.

    Well, this from the SG forum:
    We are surprised to say the least and will address the situation with Michael after the tour. For now, we just want to have a great time out here and finish with some killer shows in Boston, Poughkeepsie, Quebec City and Halifax.

    4 people on LI were killed by a douchebag junkie a few weeks ago at a local drug store for pain pills

    Even though this is Mass..... I'd throw the book at him. If this were LI in the wake of those murders, he'd get what he deserves



    Fucking lowlife
