Between The Buried And Me’s Dustie Waring Missing from ‘The Colors Experience’ Tour
Those who caught Between The Buried And Me so far on ‘The Colors Experience’ tour have noted that guitarist Dustie Waring is not on stage with the band. There’s no news as to why he wasn’t there, but it’s not the first time he’s stepped away from the band’s live shows
You may recall that Waring stepped away from live shows last year due to sexual assault allegations, which he firmly denied. At the time, the guitarist was accused of raping and impregnating a fan a few years ago. According to the anonymous woman who posted a lengthy retelling of what she allegedly remembered happening, she said she was sharing her experience a few years after the fact because she was “too scared to come forward and speak my truth” at the time.
By her own admission, she had been hanging out with some friends and drinking pretty heavily the day she’d met Waring at a bar near a local venue. After introducing herself to the guitarist, she alleged that he kept buying her shots and kissing her at the bar despite her obvious inebriation. She then claims remembering waking up at home with bruises on her hips and wrists, in addition to feeling some vaginal pain.
According to text conversations between the two, Waring allegedly confirmed all of the details about what happened, including a sexual encounter in the bar’s bathroom. Weeks later, she learned she was pregnant and decided to terminate it.
Waring would eventually rejoin the band on stage at Furnace Fest 2023.
This time around, the reasoning behind Waring’s absence isn’t really known at the moment. In his place, the band has Sometime In February’s Tristan Auman filling in.
