Coheed and Cambria Bassist Michael Todd Arrested for Armed Robbery Before Gig | TMZ.com
You would think he is making plenty of money with Coheed and Cambria. 
He is one of my biggest influences, such a shame.

Apparently people noticed he was looking a bit strung out the past couple shows, too bad no one caught it before it came to this. |

I really hope he gets it together. One of my favorite bassists.

It seems weird to me that he would have to rob a store to get his fix. Why didn't he just buy it, albeit illegally? If he didn't have enough money, he could've sold a pedal or something.
And cjmodulus, he did have to leave the band for a while in 2006 to go through rehab.
