RIML: Robert Trujillo of Metallica

RIML: Zakk Wylde

I was pleasantly surprised meeting guitar hero Zakk Wylde.  He is a well travelled man who sees the world in balanced terms, but is still comfortable with his opinion.   He gave us a ten minute dialog about the upcoming US election but was mainly excited by the potential dirt digging and slinging theatrical value of the debates!  Then we talked music and I think all three of us were surprised by his first influential artist.  Then, of course Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath are mentioned, and he recited the story he told as he inducted them into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.  Benn McGuire also caught some great camera work at the show which we feature in between records, including a solo from within the audience, all while still connected to the stage with a 100' long guitar cable!

(apologies for the audio on this episode, a technical glitch.  However, Zakk Wylde is an interesting guy, with a load of hilarious stories that were too good not to share).
