Metallican Robert Trujillo kertoo kuinka kohdella tunnettuja muusikoita
Yhdysvaltalaisen thrash metal -legenda Metallican basisti Robert Trujillo on antanut hiljattain haastattelun IndiePower.com:lle, jossa mieheltä kysyttiin että kuinka hän on tullut toimeen kiertueilla ns. ”vaikeampien” ja tunnettujen muusikoiden kuten esimerkiksi Ozzy Osbournen, Jerry Cantrellin (Alice in Chains) sekä Zakk Wylden (Black Label Society) kanssa. Miehen mukaan ongelmia ei ole koskaan ollut koska hän on tottunut olemaan astumasta ihmisten varpaille, joiden tietää suuttuvan helposti.

”That’s interesting, because at a very young age, with my family situation and my dad, who I am still very tight with… But growing up, dad was… It was funny, ’cause in my situation with him, we always had a good relationship, [but] I was always very careful not to cross him. So in my band situations, I was always very careful how not to cross certain members. Because bandmembers can fly off the handle, especially in the situation that some of them were in, whether it was drug issues, drinking, whatever it was… There was a lot of stuff going down, and you had to be cool. Because, I mean, someone like Zakk, he would snap. He would kind of switch right in front of your eyes. So you always had to be careful with these people. And that’s part of the journey, and I think with that, I adopted patience and respect. I learned how to deal with people and their personalities the best way that I can, and could, in these different situations.”
