It’s so funny that people from Harvard always have to tell other people that they went to Harvard, even if it’s just passing. It never fails

[@dahkotawilber612]

Please post more stories like this of how songs/riffs are created and their backstory. As a drummer, this is fascinating to watch and a way great to learn things from the greats

[@GentMusicShorts]

Will do. Glad you enjoyed!

I always knew he played Slash and the hair was glued to the hat

[@zacharter]

HAHAHAH HAHAHAHA

[@Brave_New_Tube]

Ahh, he went to Harvard. He was never Against the Machine, he was a baby Machine himself.

[@danban1967]

[@SignificanceOfThePassageOfTime]

Rage on behalf of the Machine. Or his super group, Profits from Rage.

@@danban1967 Eh I’ll give credit where it’s due and say he’s at least been pretty innovative/influential as far as experimenting with guitar tone goes. Other than that, could care less about him.

[@danban1967]

@@Brave_New_Tube Yeah I mean he can write good riffs, however cant solo at all. His ego is way too big for his skills.

[@richardkoen6848]

Look who his parents were.

[@Duncan_McFly82]

Absolutely amazing at what he does

[@richardkoen6848]

Psi-ops to keep the cattle from actually rebelling against the state?

[@ElCajun1755]

[@Greg-rp7ou]

[@olaf1746]

[@ElCajun1755]

Going to Harvard and being a communist explain all about Tom "Braindead" Morello.
