Whenever you have an experience like that and don't get killed, you're going to have a pretty good tale. Thanks for the chuckle Tim. Reminds me of the time the band rolled into The Pas Manitoba, saw the rooms and, unlike you, got right back into our bus and left town, never to return.

What a scary story; thanks for sharing. The fact that these guys were on your car shows they were up to no good. The hotel sounded gross. It does exactly sound right out of a movie. Great you had a lesson with Zorro

Crazy story man. How the hell do you get yourself into these situations? You should have just asked Zorro to sleep in his garage or on his driveway, you would have been better off. Lol 😂
@drumteacher43Ай бұрын
lol I don’t know it just follows me. My son said the same things but he see’s it in real life. Like when I was at Costco and a teen girl ( I don’t know) runs up to me and says “dad I finally found you” my son was quite upset. Of course I left as her groupie mom approached ( lol) 😂

I'm surprised that Zorro didn't offer Tim a place to stay or at least advise him to get a different hotel.
@drumteacher43Ай бұрын
@dougcallaghan6075 no he didn’t and I didn’t expect him too to be honest! I have done this with many drummers non have ever offered to stay at their homes.

Zoro was in Nashville in Brentwood. You must have been in Antioch. You don't want to be there after dark!

OK, I'll ask the question that most would ask watching this...why would you not change hotels if you knew you were in a bad area? Why stay and risk theft or violence? If I found a condom anywhere in the room, that would be a showstopper (after I threw up). 🙂
@drumteacher43Ай бұрын
That’s a good question? I think it’s because the hotels all around including the one I stayed in were all booked up. Nashville is a major entertainment city hotels get booked months in advance that’s number 1 reason secondary I tried to change rooms but non available 3rd reason I just thought I could tolerate it and things would get better! As a touring musician for 40 yrs I’ve stayed in some rough places on my own or with bandmates/crew so I thought it would have to do..condom was terrible though!!
