I've got so much to say/share about Saturday's concert at Wembley but I'll start with this post here (there will be a few more to come so apologies in advance.) At the very beginning of this I was asked what drums I'd like to use. Do I want my drums flown over to London for me to use? Without hesitation I said "Taylor's drums need to be up there and I want to play on his exact set up. I want THAT energy to be up on THAT stage. I want to sweat all over the same drums he was sweating all over every night...don't change a thing." OK, my own sticks and double pedal (Hot For Teacher) but that's it. Even that goddamn crash cymbal WAY too high that was hard for me to hit (AND I lowered it a little! Fuck, what the hell was he doing!??🤣) Anyhow, and the 714 shirt. I'm usually not one of those "gotta represent!" kinda guys but Taylor and I both grew up in Orange County...30 mins away from one another but whenever we were in a group full of musicians (usually far away from home somewhere) we'd joke that we were the only 2 guys from O.C. in the room. We always had that funny little bond and he'd always remind me that he was tired of hearing about "that other young guy from OC who was already making records and touring" when he was a teenager. I'd then ask him if he wanted to trade bank accounts with me, LOL! Fuck man, the whole thing sucks. He would've loved that show more than anyone though. ❤️
