Metallica's Robert Trujillo Had To Be Careful With Zakk Wylde
. (Classic Rock) Robert Trujillo says he learned early in his career how to maintain inter-band harmony - mainly by not pissing off Zakk Wylde. The bassist has worked with a lot of big personalities in his musical career- none more so than in his current post with Metallica. He has also worked with Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves and Ozzy Osbourne, where he met Wylde. Trujillo says he was careful as a child not to cross his father, and he took those lessons into his musical career. He tells IndiePower: "In my band situations, I was always very careful how not to cross certain members. Because band members 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 could in these different situations." Read more here.
