I’m am SO happy he’s in my all-time favorite band. His love for shredding, playing different guitars, and also playing killer rhythm is why he will go down as one of my favorites. Nothing beats the story of his audition for Foo Fighters…showed up with a “junk” guitar and no pedals, sang back up vocals without being asked, and got the job with no questions asked a day later. Love you Shifty, see you next tour🤘
