@razorbldebutterfly on Instagram was kind enough to share some pics from the Belgrade show. I’ve put their pics in the Fan Submissions album in EDF Photo, so check ’em out when you can. Couple of super cool pics of Edsel in there – he is still absolutely KILLING it.

A fan on Instagram sent me this cute story and pics from when they met Edsel in Belgrade, and gave me permission to share!
“A few years ago I made a small Edsel plushie, and it was supposed to be just something silly at first and i never actually thought about giving it to him as a gift. When I left to go see Static-X and Dope I decided to bring it with me because I wanted to try and give it to him, even if I knew it was probably unlikely. Fast forward to after the show, I met almost everyone in Dope and I also saw Edsel going towards the bus. I was kinda scared cause I didn’t want to bother him yk, but my friend told me to try and so I did, and he was the sweetest! After he signs my stuff, we chat a little and I gave him the plushie. He loved it!! He told me it was super cute and he was gonna give it to his daughter”
Thank you so much @razorbldebutterfly! Here are the pictures they shared below. Please do not repost without their permission.

Just wanted to check in with a couple of updates for you: Dope tour news, and a bit of a lengthy update on the state of our fansite’s social media.
First off, exciting Dope tour news for fans in Pennsylvania: Dope has officially announced a date for Allentown! If you’re in the area, be sure to grab your tickets at dopetheband.com for all the latest tour news. Don’t miss out!
Next, I would like a bit of a chat about our social media. I’ve been reflecting a lot lately about this site’s social media presence, especially with the TikTok ban now looking all but certain. To be honest, it’s been hard to stay motivated to post on the fansite’s social media as often as I once did. I know I shouldn’t let it get to me, but it’s really drained my creative energy. It’s also led me to reassess my priorities.
After giving it some thought, I’ve decided to shift my focus. For now, I’ll be stepping back from EDF.org’s social media presence. I’m NOT disappearing, and I’m not deleting any of my past posts, but I truly believe the real support and conversations should be happening on Dope’s official channels. Those are the best places to stay connected with the band and fellow fans. I don’t want to unintentionally get in the way of their outreach, and honestly, I’ve started to feel like I might have been doing that. If that’s the case, I want to make sure I correct it.
So, I’m redirecting my focus to edseldopefan.org, where I’ll continue sharing content and building a space to celebrate Edsel and the band’s music. This site has become an afterthought lately, and it’s time to fix that. I’m really passionate about edseldopefan.org, and I feel like it’s where I can make the most meaningful contributions right now.
It’s been amazing to see how many of you still love Edsel and his music. Hearing that is what makes all this worth it—even in times of uncertainty. I’m not going anywhere, just shifting my focus a bit to make sure this site is the best it can be for you.
Thank you for your continued support, and I’m excited to keep building this community with all of you. Let’s keep the energy going!
Dope is teaming up with the legendary Static-X for the Machines vs. Monsters Tour 2025! After all the chaos this year, this is exactly what I need. If they announce a date for Atlanta, you better believe I’m packing my bags and heading out. I covered the Atlanta stop on the Machine Killer Tour, and it was absolutely epic. I know this one will be just as unforgettable!
For tickets and VIPs, head to dopetheband.com.
