      Once upon a time like 15 years ago, in Worcester MA, you bummed me a marb light cigarette. You were so humble and kind, Jeff. We stood around and talked about the Pod vs the Axe Fx outside the tour bus. Like Eddie, you're truly an inspiration and a massive influence to all of us. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us, man! 😊

That show was the first time we got to play with some "big bands", and you were in one of them. Just knowing that is cool as F'k.
