Modest Mouse has booted guitarist Simon O’Connor from its upcoming North American tour after he was accused of sending inappropriate messages to a teen fan.

The indie rock band announced Friday that O’Connor, who is in his 40s, will not join them on the road beginning Tuesday in Ojai, Calif.

“Simon O’Connor will not be joining us on the upcoming tour,” the “Float On” rockers wrote on Instagram.

“The good news is that Seth Jabour of Les Savy Fav will be jumping in to play guitar. We look forward to being out there with you all.”

On July 26, O’Connor was accused by a Reddit user, who identified themselves as a 17-year-old fan, of sending them “an erotic image” and commenting on their “bikini pics” through Instagram direct message.

The user, who posted a series of screenshots of their alleged conversations on the social platform, said they were 16 at the time of the interaction and had their date of birth listed in their Instagram profile.

O’Connor allegedly opened the conversation with a sticker reading, “Simon calls your bluff, BUZZZ,” before sending what the user described as a sexually explicit meme of a naked man.

The user responded by suggesting O’Connor’s account had been hacked.

“Wish I was hacked just had a party night and looking at everything with one eye ya know,” O’Connor allegedly replied.

“But you did blindside me with a gaggle of likes and then very little intro besides bikini pics so we are both to blame.”

O’Connor’s message was quickly deleted, but the recipient said they had taken a screenshot.

The user also alleged O’Connor viewed an Instagram Story counting down to their 17th birthday before later messaging, “sorry.”

O’Connor responded Monday in a lengthy statement, apologizing to the fan while saying he had mistaken them for someone he believed had repeatedly harassed him online using fake accounts.

“Throughout my adult life, there has been a person who has popped up from time to time with the intention of, for lack of a better term, messing with me,” O’Connor wrote on the Modest Mouse subreddit.

The “Sopranos” cast is mourning the loss of one of their own.

Shortly after news broke that Vincent Pastore, who played Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s “The Sopranos,” had died, his co-stars began paying tribute to him.

In a statement to Page Six, Edie Falco said, “It’s an awful loss. So unexpected.”

The actress, who played Carmela Soprano on the series, added, “Vinnie was always so full of life.”

Michael Imperioli, who played Christopher Moltisanti on “The Sopranos,” called Pastore a “beloved friend and collaborator” in a heartfelt Instagram post.

“This is a hard one for us, it seems like I’ve known Vinny forever,” he continued. “We did lots of work together and traveled all over the USA as well as Italy and Australia. Lots of good times. Lots of laughs.”

Imperioli concluded his tribute by noting that Pastore “was a kind hearted brother who cared deeply about his family and friends,” noting, “I will miss him always.”

In a post shared to her Instagram Stories, Lorraine Bracco wrote, “Such a funny & charming man…just a beautiful soul.”

The actress, who played Jennifer Melfi on the hit show, called Pastore’s death “absolutely heartbreaking 💔.”

Dominic Chianese, who played Corrado “Junior” Soprano, wrote in an Instagram post, “We lost a friend today.”

“Paying respect and sending Love in tribute,” he continued. “You were a gem Vinnie🤍.”

Page Six confirmed Pastore’s death at the age of 80 on Saturday, with sources telling us he was found dead by a neighbor in his home on City Island in the Bronx.

Police sources told Page Six the actor had died of natural causes.

In a heartfelt statement to Page Six, Pastore’s longtime manager, Robert Attermann, mourned his death in a lengthy statement.

“I had the privilege of representing Vinny for more than 30 years, long before ‘The Sopranos’ made him a household name,” Attermann said. “To the world, he will always be remembered as the unforgettable ‘Big Pussy,’ but to those of us who knew him, he was so much more.”

Attermann called Pastore “one of the kindest, most generous people [he’d] ever known,” noting that he “treated everyone with warmth and respect, never turning down a fan who wanted a photograph or an autograph.”

“He loved being an actor. He was passionate about his craft and was always encouraging, respectful, and generous with young actors, taking the time to offer guidance and support whenever he could,” he continued, calling Pastore’s loss “deeply personal” for him.

Attermann said he’ll remember Pastore not just for his “remarkable career but also the incredible person he was.”

“I will miss his friendship, his loyalty, his humor, and his heart,” he wrote, offering his condolences to Pastore’s family, friends, colleagues and “countless fans whose lives he touched.”

He noted that the actor “leaves behind a legacy that extends far beyond his memorable performances” and that he’ll “be greatly missed and never forgotten.”

Pastore starred on “The Sopranos” for the iconic show’s first two seasons. He returned for a recurring role in Season 3 and returned in a guest capacity for the final two seasons.

“The Sopranos,” largely regarded as one of the greatest dramas of all time, aired for six seasons between 1999 and 2007, earning critical acclaim and numerous awards throughout its run.

Pastore joins the growing list of “Sopranos” cast members who have died over the years, including James Gandolfini, Nancy Marchand and Jerry Adler — to name a few.

Slipknot has fired DJ and keyboardist Sid Wilson after nearly 30 years — and just months after the rocker’s split with fianceé Kelly Osbourne, according to a report.

The “Duality” musician, 49, was notified late Friday afternoon that he had been permanently let go from the legendary heavy metal group, TMZ reported.

No explanation for the decision has been reported, and the band has yet to announce a replacement.

Wilson joined Slipknot in 1998 as their ninth member, shortly before the release of their self-titled debut album in 1999, and he remained with the group for 28 years.

He performed under the stage name “#0” and handled turntables, keyboards, samples and sound effects for the Grammy-winning metal band.

Page Six has reached out to reps for Wilson and Slipknot for comment on his reported departure.

Wilson’s reported firing comes four months after he and Osbourne called off their engagement after four years together.

They share a 3-year-old son, Sidney, who was born in November 2022.

Osbourne and Wilson first met in 1999 when Slipknot performed at the Ozzfest music festival, but they didn’t begin dating until decades later.

Wilson proposed to Osbourne backstage in July 2025 during her father Ozzy Osbourne’s Black Sabbath farewell concert in Birmingham, England, just weeks before the rock icon’s death.

Wilson also endured a frightening health scare in August 2024 when he suffered severe burns to his face and arms after an explosion at the farm he shared with Osbourne.

He later showed fans his injuries, which included singed eyebrows, burn marks across his face and arms and a blister on his lip, while assuring them he was on the mend.

Beyond his work with Slipknot, Wilson also toured as DJ Starscream, a solo project inspired by the “Transformers” villain of the same name.

Wilson’s exit marks another major lineup change for Slipknot, whose original roster has steadily dwindled over the years.

The band’s nine-member lineup after its breakout 1999 album featured Corey Taylor, Shawn “Clown” Crahan, Joey Jordison, Paul Gray, Mick Thomson, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Chris Fehn and Wilson.

Since then, keyboardist Jones and percussionist Fehn have both left the group, while bassist Gray died from a drug overdose in 2010 and drummer Jordison died in his sleep in 2021.

Today, only singer Taylor, percussionist Crahan, and guitarists Thomson and Root remain from Slipknot’s classic lineup.

Formed in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1995, Slipknot became one of the world’s biggest metal bands with its signature masks, intense live shows and hits including “Duality” and “Psychosocial.”
