- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice.
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal to a troll. The individual in the video is very obviously Patrick S. Tomlinson.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never submitted this video footage during any of his many media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergences (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.
Professional musician Joseph Cumia is now taking sub gigs
- Thread starter Torque’sHeadBump
- Start date
I mean I like Joe, but what's he doing?
Less dignified than being a substitute teacher.
Joe 'Brother Joe' 'Colleen' 'Faggot' Cumia is playing guitar in someone else's fucking Neil Diamond cover band? Get a job a greater at Walmart, Joe. The music dream is over, stupid.

How is it not copyright infringement to literally dress up as someone else and play their music live and charge $40/ticket for it?
I don’t know but you only have to pay royalties if you record and sell the music. I hope Fake Edge gets a cease & desist order.
How are the mighty fallen?
Because they're not marketing themselves as the original artist.
Also, nobody in a tribute band is rich, no point going after them.
He is going to try and hog the spotlight and breakout into solos. I cant imagine him being in this gig long before we see a post shit talking the experience.
I'd pay just to see the band's faces when he turns up in his faded stars and bars rag, CoD shirt, basketball shorts, and white sneakers.
I hope he falls off the stage during Sweet Caroline
Noel Gallagher says his brother has to pay him to sing the songs he wrote in Oasis. Now that might just be UK/EU PRS rules but I suspect they are global if your doing them at a ticketed gig?
BUM BUM BUM
Guess the "fancy clothes" Joe wears. Will it be that dress shirt with guitars on it?
Joe found a rung on the amateur guitar hobbyist ladder lower than "busking at the Clam Hut". He's a SUBSTITUTE guitar player in a Neil Diamond cover band. Being the REGULAR guitar player in a Neil Diamond cover band is pretty sad, but Joe managed to top it as only he can. There's no fucking way this gig pays more than fifty bucks or so.
He's gonna fuck it all up boc style
I’d be hard pressed to tell you who the ACTUAL guitar player for Neil Diamond is, much less the understudy.
