The Mopes and The Methadones
The Mopes were a side-project for Schafer (vocals, guitar) and B-Face (bass). The line-up was completed with John Jughead (guitar) and Dan Lumley (drums). The band existed from 1996 through 1998. The Methadones were a side project that Schafer began in 1993 but sat on the back-burner for a number of years. In 1999, Schafer re-launched the group, recruiting former Mopes B-Face and Dan Lumley to record an album, Ill at Ease. After the recording, he established a new, Chicago-based line up. The Chicago line-up included Schafer (vocals, guitar), Mike Byrne (guitar), Pete Mittler (bass) and Mike Soucy (drums). The band disbanded in 2010.
