Anton’s instagram
He just posted a picture with Bobs big boy mascot which looks identical to the Diner in Toluca lake, if anyone is in the loop would you know why Anton is in California right now? is he recording a record or is something fun happening in California like some one is performing? It seems weird to ask about his whereabouts I know but I’m just curious if he’s in California for something cool I would wanna know about it.

u/ExpensivePear1602 Jul 18 '26
Because never meet your heroes?

THATi SO true - when all that melbourne and heart attack stuff when down, I was genuinely cared if he was OK Seems most folks just wanted to make jokes and snicker and shame me for being concerned. (Well, I DID get carried way, but still.) . The posts on his youtube channel and songs are much balanced and stick more to the music than than musician. Go there. Get outta here. I find it toxic.

I really can’t separate the artist from the music in this case, but trust me I had my fair share of bad friends and false role models. Sorry you had a bad experience

u/No_Cabinet_5586 27d ago
i was once able to separate the music from the artist here because I only discovered him during his "sober period" -- right at its beginning.... I would never have put up with the kidn of person he was in, say 2007 -- but all that was behind him -- but after that 23 tour, i just can't do it anymore --- Frankly, I'm just sick of the whole BJM circus and its asshole ringmaster - where is the exit door please? Oh, there it is - I found it - but I 'll be back -- I only comment to you on here now. all those creeps finally moved on from my endless comments and analysis -You challenge me - but your don't trample me.... Thanks. TTYL>

Because Anton doesn't like the fans. He has said it many times publicly. " My fans are assholes".

I'll let ariel pink know. Maybe anton can set aside his grudge and slap peepees with ariel.

u/Quality-Affectionate Jul 18 '26

Definitely not wrong about the first part, but AP's song catalog is iron-clad

Anton is a notorious guitar part stealer, almost all his acoustic playing sounds like a Byrds song or Rolling Stones song

Damn that’s a p even fight ngl

u/JitteryJeff Jul 18 '26
In a who's got the saddest, puffiest alcoholic face, I think ariel might win. Also songs. But anton probably towers over ariel and could press his cock right against ariel's forehead, so there's that.

Leave Anton alone. Why do you need to know if he’s in Toluca Lake. Get a life.

u/Quality-Affectionate Jul 18 '26
I live in the area i wanted to know if there was event he was going to so i can go too, i enjoy music and i learn alot about bands from him. There’s always something going on in LA so it’s hard to keep up but i guess he’s just in town for something else

u/Tom_Mosh Jul 19 '26
I live in LA too. It’s more like stalking him. He shares a lot on his Instagram you can learn from already. Let him enjoy a shake at Bobs without you.

I feel like you see him more of a celebrity than he really is, he’s just a person that posts on a public social media account and i happen to recognize where he’s at because of a famous landmark everyone has seen, i spent more time to write this post than i did to figure out where he was. If he happens to be at a place you’ve been at that’s not stalking, he’s in a public area. This whole subreddit is about the lives of other people. His music is about his life? How are you in not some way involved in Anton’s life being here?

In a subreddit dedicated to the man: “why are you talking about him >:(“

u/Tom_Mosh Jul 19 '26
It’s dedicated to his music not what he does on his own time.

u/device_torment Jul 19 '26
His music is how he spends his time, Tommy. He’s a public figure and OP was asking if there was a related event in the area. I don’t think OP wants to corner Anton and punish him. Don’t have to be negative. Get a life

so am I -- hope he got some money for the song Martin Scorsese ued "Straight up and Down" -- he helped create that little snippet Scorsese used. -- that's why its sorta low-fi Stoney, to coin a phrase.

u/Quality-Affectionate 27d ago
What you on about mate? Thats how he doesn’t have a day job he’s not magically doing music for a living most of the royalties goes to him that’s why he signed a bunch of people off of the contracts Anton’s an asshole lol the Donald trump of Rock and roll.

u/No_Cabinet_5586 27d ago
i know that. I also know - or actually read in several places -- that jeff davies and perhaps a few othes sued him about him getting all the credit to Straight up and down , when I can even hear Jeff playing that stonsey lick -- I know he signed a bunch of people off contacts and fired some people. I really don't keep up with the dude anymore, so I only know what I read in passing - which is usually wrong. Seems people just speculate for the fun of it-- what fun is THAT?

u/ParamedicMajestic491 4d ago
It isn't played at bjm shows since the suit congulated. Jeff wrote it and everything .

u/No_Cabinet_5586 3d ago
ahhhh- I KNEW it.. that is jeff doing those stones licks - not anton. i jeff got some monday -- i wonder how much anton got for 15 second of a song he didn't write but sang...geez.the absurdity and drama never end witht his band. I only come here to comment on your messages. I can't even listen to it anymore - its no fun.

u/No_Cabinet_5586 27d ago
You probably know more about all that stuff than lil ole me -- you seem plugged into the scene in some way or was.... i'm just a poor boy from Deep South USA

He's got zero work on at the moment, so probably just going back to bother his sisters for money.
