I was fortunate enough to tour with Brett Tuggle during the David Lee Roth years. Myself, Billy Sheehan, Greg and Matt Bissonette and Brett were brothers of the highest order and to say we had fun together would be like saying the sun is hot. 1/8 pic.twitter.com/kxp7906LIH

Really sad to hear about Brett Tuggle’s passing. Spent quite a bit of time with him during my Stevie days. I’m glad we reconnected before the pandemic. Big loss for the extended Fleetwood Mac family. Rest In Peace, Tuggs 😢 pic.twitter.com/sLh3lcdrzG
