“16 years ago today, this handsome Whiskey Warlord joined the ‘Tallica party… Roberto Augstín Miguel Santiago Samuel Perez de la Santa Concepcíon Trujillo Veracruz Bautista, the man with the single most rocking name ever, but known simply as Rob T in my contacts..you are the coolest cat in any room and I’m fuckin grateful to share this crazy ride with you.

Ulrich also recently posted on Instagram, “Today 30 years ago, February 22 ‘89, we played the Grammys for the first time and that was quite a mindfuck!!
First time we were in front of a mainstream TV audience.
First time mainstream America was exposed to whatever the hell it is we do.
First time they had a hard rock/metal category on the Grammys.
First time we were Grammy losers, since Jethro Tull, somewhat unexpectedly to most people, walked away with the win.
But all was not lost..
The expressions of disgust from most members of the audience (other than Iggy!) is something I will treasure for the rest of my life.
And I was rocking some pretty crazy hair that was edging dangerously close to a mullet!
Happy days indeed!!
