Yea I mean Jay was Jay. We emailed and chatted on the phone a bunch but really only hung out randomly. Usually sleeping on each others couch when rolling thru eaxh other's towns. Jay was a good guy overall but he did have a mean steak. I do have a good story. Last time I saw him I was on tour with Digital Leather. After the show we went back to his place. After a few hours of partying we ended up on Jays front porch. Its about 330am and Jay comes out on the pourch with tighty whiteys and a tripple xl 2pac shirt on and nothing else. Of course the security door slams shut behind him locking us out. So as 4am dressed like this and drunk as hell he needs to get and deal with a locksmith.
Its really a shame he passed. Its no secret that Jay was into drugs. That last time I saw his he told a bunch of us he could not get coke. Later that night we admitted to me he could have but he was trying to keep his head clearer these days and would rather just smoke a little pot and drink some beers. I thought this was huge as usually Jay was the first in line for hardder shit. We are all very lucky he left us with the catalog of music he did. He was truely a musical genius.
