#Repost @zmyersofficial: Here’s a fun #FlashbackFriday ... The other day my friend @jasonisbell texted me and told me that he had purchased a guitar that him , myself and many other guitar players from the south and everywhere else knew by a simple name “Red Eye” ... I almost teared up when he told me. It couldn’t have gone to a more deserving person But this pic is from 97 or 98 I believe. Of myself and Ed King.... this was at a weird time for me trying to figure out what I wanted to do musically .... Ed from that point on really took me under his wing that day .... and I learned a lot from him ... after this show I went to his house several times over the years and I remember jamming on his porch many times and learning life lessons from one of the most down to earth , soft spoken humans I had ever met ... especially one who wrote quite a few amazing songs .... Ed passed recently and it really had me reflecting on what a kind human he was . . Here’s a photo of that treasured guitar , Ed ... and a very young me .... in Dallas Texas in the 90’s (as you can see by my shirt) #zachmyers #shinedown
