Todd Youth tribute / memorial

Tribute to our beloved friend and bandmate Todd "Youth" Schofield from his NYHC family. We love you and miss you.
Directed by Drew Stone

I was in New York for five years and knew him when we were both cycle messengers working for A to Z. He was a very cool guy and generous with his time. It was our shared love of music that got us to hang out together. I went to watch a rehearsal one time and saw Murphy’s Law but can’t recall what venue it was but Joey Ramone was among the audience. Great times in NYC.

[@stonefilmsnyc]

Wow A to Z messengers, classic!

[@debbiemeyer4504]

Far away now, but really miss this man. Such a genuine human. 💔💔

😢 REST IN POWER TODD

This video is awesome Drew. Definitely got me a little choked up. I never had the pleasure of meeting Todd until '99. I met him October 31rst 1999 in Boston., the same time that I met Glenn Danzig for the first time. The whole band were class acts (Yes, including Glenn), but Todd just had a real good vibe about him. Very polite and genuinely seemed to enjoy meeting every person who came up and introduced themselves to him..and considering it was Halloween, he played in Danzig and it was a record release day...there were a lot of people who wanted to meet the band. Rest In peace Todd

[@stonefilmsnyc]

Glad you enjoyed it, Can you imagine how choked up I got making the thing?

[@stickkitty77]

Todd was such an amazing guitarist. I had the honor to see him play with The Chelsea Smiles. A couple of my photos are in this video when they played The Viper Room in 2014. He was a very kind person with a beautiful soul and talent beyond belief. We all miss you Todd. Thank you for your gift of music. 😽

[@mikeneuroth7062]

An underrated true original...from the NYHC streets to incredible artist...never forgetting his roots.....loved all your work.....from Agnostic Front to Fireburn.....Todd Youth (R.I.P.)

[@joeackermann2200]

Thanks for putting this together Drew. My heart broke when I heard

[@Jobsterizm]

Job well done Drew!!!!!!

[@marcoortiz8046]

Thanks for posting. Music and musicians of all genres in my 54 years have jumped on and off my radar, and occasionally, there have been a few that I haven't followed in a spell, only to find out they have passed. Todd was one of them. I was late to the Todd Youth fan club though I do remember Agnostic Front as I drifted from the NWOBM of the early 80's to punk and reggae and hard core. My first introduction to Todd's brilliance was by roommate I had in Salinas Ca in 1999, Scotti from Infamous Stiffs, Hollywood Hate, Electric Frankenstein, Verbal Abuse. He played Todd's new band at the time Chrome Locust. This one will always stick with me. It's one of those, if you could only take X amount of music stranded on an Island. To those who new Todd, the NYHC family, and the rest, my sincere condolences. I've been combing for interviews and have gotten the smallest glimpse of why he was and is so loved.

[@bexlyspeed]

great Tribute. gone too soon, rest in peace.

[@matthewashley9880]

Met Todd quite a few times first time when I was 14 . Now I’m 49. Last time I saw him he was playing with Chelsea smiles in asbury. One of the kindest straight up guys i ever met . He is truly missed. Todd youth. Respect ✊ .

[@arklowrockz]

That is some career trajectory right there. Unreal

[@stonefilmsnyc]

We miss him.

[@barrajayne4357]

[@barrajayne4357]

@@stonefilmsnyc A beautiful tribute. Todd was a brother to my son Skye Vaughan-Jayne and he was a son to me. Thank you

[@guitarsandsuchetc]

@@barrajayne4357 why did he die. Sorry for your loss. .

[@voiceofreason1208]

Seeing Todd with Murphy's Law back in 92 was my first hardcore show. Sad that both him and Chuck Valle, who played that show are both gone. This mans talent was amazing to crossover so many genres of music. RIP Todd.

[@abarragan2973]

I saw them for the first time around then too. I was on Todd’s side but couldn’t really watch him with the scantily clad woman dancing in front of him. Haha

[@rplatzer]

Amazing. So well-done. Thank you for sharing for those of us who couldn't be at Niagra yesterday. RIP Todd.

[@doughboysxe]

Beautiful night last night , thanks Drew & the rest of "the boys" for setting this up. Prayers, love & PMA Todd's family.

[@illmsg77]

4:06 was such an awesome fuckin tour. Seeing him in Las Vegas with Cheap Trick doing Sgt. Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band was an amazing experience. So sad, too young.
