When Danny Carey goes OFF

[@benkelly7182]

I met him in the lobby of a King Crimson show and he talked to me for 20 minutes. He was really kind. He doesn’t do pictures but gave a hug to anyone that asked. My buddy had a Danny Carey T-Shirt in the 90s that said “Believe in nothing, destroy your ego, trust in your divinity”. Just to riff off of what you were saying about him.

[@mactireliath2356]
