    What a beautifully humble and nice guy. Zero ego and no tough guy bullshit.

    "Because its positive"....
    Whats also positive is how utterly humble this man is. I dont know him, nor have i met him but i can tell its a genuine trait. I love this interview because he made it about everyone else and thats class.

    A friend bought me a ticket to go to the warped tour which at the time I had sworn to never go back to as it was being over run by emo screamo shit, I looked at the line up and saw angry samoans and I said fuck it I'll go. Found out right before heading out the door that they weren't playing the orlando date so without shit to do I put on my inside my brain shirt in protest and went to honestly talk to some chicks. Literally every band sucked and I was bummed, I sat on the curb and was smoking a cigarette and this tall ass dude with a scally cap came up to me and said with the thickest new york accent "ey- angry samoans, now that's some old school thrash right there!" And I was like "yeah bummed they're not playing" we shot the shit and for a bit, he (casually) mentioned he used to sing for AF back in the day. I like united blood era but kinda hate that sing songy shit they morphed into so I never dug deep enough into them to be familiar with this dude. I asked him what the fuck he was doing here he said his kid wanted to see sum41 then his kid walked up and he said some Krishna shit I was like what's your name dude and he said "John Watson" and smiled real big, we shook hands and just in case he wasn't fuckin around I was like "can I snap a photo of you to show my friends" he said "'course" then crossed his arms, said something Krishna and I look him up and dude wasn't lying! Crazy world, just had to share that. Super fucking nice guy, wish I was more aware of how legendary the guy was at the time. I keep hearing his name on podcasts and shit.
