he has been having a rough few weeks, based on his FB. Met him a few times and was on the NJ circuit when he was pre D2. Good guy.

When I met Ted he was super nice!!! Really came across as genuine. He has made some great music. He was great in Tokyo Motor Fist. They are very underrated. This song should have been a major hit I think. He also cares alot about animals so he will always be cool in my book. https://youtu.be/lVKJ-cBSK-I?feature=shared

Wow he is autistic?

[ParaDime77]

Anyone that knows Ted personally reached out to him? He’s in a seriously dark place.

Prayers for Ted. Hope he finds some peace.

Loved Danger Danger. That first disc is a classic.

What ever happened to their keyboard player Kasey Smith?

Good question. You never hear about Kasey Smith since he left the band. Does he have any social medial accounts to follow? And agreed DangerX2's debut was/is a B/C-level hair classic. Sucks that Ted didn't have more supportive parents.

I like Ted personally & he's been very nice to us on several dozen occassions but watching him from afar, there are multiple times he's not such a good guy to others. Very very rude & unlikeable for some.
We've heard his nickname was "Bi Poley", esp when he doesnt have his weed around.
Big fan of DD but It suxx he's not considered a DD partner with Bruno/Steve as he's only one keeping the music alive. Heard Bruno/Steve dont like the travel and/or playing live anymore.
Maybe its cause Ted is on social media alot but he sure seems to be a complainer but it can be he just wears his heart on his sleeve but some things he should keep to himself.

I don’t know if Kasey is still doing music or not. But if he is, he’s probably doing jazz. That was his background.

[DonJuanDeMarco]

I’m pretty sure Kasey is out of the business, working a regular job.

As for Ted…. He had a solo band at one point but now he’s just doing acoustic shows and occasional shows with pickup bands. He probably gets a little lonely or depressed and posts stuff just to connect with his fans. I’ve met him a few times over the years and he was always super cool and nice. I wish him all the best.

Incidentally, I’ve met ALL of the Danger Danger original members and they were all cool and nice. Behind the scenes is another story obviously. They don’t seem to get along very well.
