As previously reported, Mastodon recently recruited Ben Eller for their performance at Tool’s “Live In The Sand” festival in the Dominican Republic. The YouTuber/musician was filling the void left by guitarist/vocalist Brent Hinds, who recently exited the group. Now, Eller has taken to social media to comment on the experience. He said the following

“Get into it! What an incredible weekend playing with @mastodonrocks as a part of @toolinthesand . You guys who have followed me for a while know how much I love this music, so to be asked to play alongside the band is a TRUE honor. I’ve seen your kind and supportive words for me out there, and it means the world to me! My inbox is so stuffed, there’s no way I can respond to every single thing, but know how much I appreciate yall. Thank you all, and thank you to @billy_butterslax , @creamale , and Troy for trusting me to get the job done. Playing the parts of one of my favorite guitarists ever is no easy task, but it was a joy. Cheers, everyone!”
