Major props Jason for being open about your addiction. I met you at a Chophouse Band show in Napa California at Silos back in 2016, I was the guy with the Elvis book that you signed, I finally got to meet my hero!!! Love ya man!!!

People can say this and that but the fact remains....JASON WAS THE ATTITUDE THAT CARRIED METALLICA THROUGH THE LATE 80S AND EARLY 90S. Had he not brought the energy,attitude,and the discipline to metallica he did after Cliff died metallica wouldnt have been as big as they got...jason DESERVES HIS DUES HE CARRIED THE BAND WHEN THEY NEEDED IT THE MOST

Such a humble guy. He is still so complimentary about metallica despite how things panned out between them. I miss him in metallica but kudos to him for being so true to himself and his situation throughout.

The universe will always align to bless this dude.

The only realistic ordinary guy of metallica. I watched you headline at milton Keynes bowl 1993... i was completely blown away by your solo performance most of all. Jason rates top on my own list of best in the world not just in metallica but every performance. Thanks for all your hard work. Legend!

When I was a teenager I wanted to be like you, now that I am older I would like to become as real as you are! Thanks Jason for the memories and for being honest.

He was the one that me a 5 year old crying cause I missed everyone but then he came out of nowhere signed my shirt a hat and he was my favorite member already so it was a dream come true not a lot of people get to meet their fav celeb musicians and was always loyal to Jason year later the same maybe 1999 after not sure load or reload same thing he was doing autographs still loyal to him

This man is unbreakable. A true legend

When you “Left” you took Metallica with you.. we miss you so much! 😢

Jason you’re so precious 🥺

In my 33 years of absorption in the metal world I've never heard or read a bad word about Jason. My favourite member of Metallica. Humble, dynamic and passionate. Such a legend of music.

Jason es simplemente uno de los mejores musicos de metal que he visto en mi vida, gran artista

We still love you Jason!

Love you Jason. I seen you 4 times during those years in Maryland and Pennsylvania Thank you for all you did in for us fans and the band. Hope your shoulder's are doing good. mine have been pretty messed up for 13 years now :(

I bumped into Jason at Guitar Center in Concord over 15 years ago. Such a nice and humble guy. I definitely will be checking out the Chop House band. Walnut Creek is just a hop skip away from Vallejo. 👍🏻

He's one of the rare celebrities that I'd like to personally meet. So far it's he and Mark Hamill... that's my list.

Hats off to him.

Appreciate you Jason.

Love this man so very much

Still love you Jason

Great vid and your a stand up guy for being as open as you are with your fans!! P.S. my wife still adores you!

Fascinating how he does not hesitate when he speaks. No "uhm" "eee" "aaaand", no nothing. Like his composing philosophy, just let it flow. Good guy Jason.

JASON NEWSTED IS THE BEST HEAVY METAL BASS

I have been victim of CYBER BULLYING MYSELF I WITNESSED IT AND I HAVE BEEN THROUGH THOW I feel your pain and you can feel my pain too😭😭😭😭

Never realized Jason was injured and in enough pain to get addicted to Vicatin. Pretty deep to talk about that. Wouldn't surprise me if he's had neck issues too with decades of head banging. The fame and money comes with a toll on the body, much like an NFL player.

He has had to have neck surgery. I don't know if it's a fusion or what be he was very open that it came from his headbanging.

Jason Curtis Newsted (Battle Creek, Míchigan; 4 de marzo de 1963) es un músico estadounidense, conocido por haber sido el bajista de la banda de thrash metal Metallica desde 1986 hasta 2001.

Pure wisdom

Love for Jasonic :)

Fantastic and underrated bass player

cool Jason 👍

Jason..🤘

Whenever I feel sorry for myself about all my health problems and surgeries etc, I will remember this. You could not make this shit up.

Jason I've always adored you..p.s even though I love James as well - I still get pissed at the way he treated you- anal retentive bully that he is! Lars too-..truth is you carried the band for years and gave it that unique sound,you can never be replaced, despite the poor treatment you have remained so humble and authentic- traits that can not be bought! Thank you for the music.

I hope, he'll play with Metallica as a guest again:)

Do you remember when we went to go see Motley Crue open for KISS in Phoenix and we thought it was cool to leave right after they played instead of sticking around to see KISS?

Your new music . He'll yeah . Ass kicking stuff. Strong , heavy. 👍

You rock. I am glad you beat it, brother

Fuck,I am in recovery after a surgery like his,I am immediately going to stop overusing my good side because it is starting to hurt me also.Dont want a second surgery 🤢The docter told me this already but I didn't listen.If I hear it from Jason,I will listen.Thx friend💪🤘💋

Damn Lou Reed is looking better than ever

Hey Jason, I'd love to hear a second Echobrain album!

thank you for the inspiration man, you are the reason i picked up bass guitar as my main instrument

I was wondering why, he was so thin, all those surgeries on his body, and being clean and sober, good job jason, it’s a day at a time, to get sober.

He's a simple man, he doesn't even have tattoos on his arms.

Wasn’t this from 2020? That photo in the background of TCB looks like an album cover ;) - Fingers crossed! I know he said last year he was looking to release something around April 2021.. Cheers.

Interesting story. Would love to talk to You one day.

Jason started to look like Lou Reed !

Never heard anybody else say this - that pain pills often create pain, but they most certainly do. The standard opiates like he was taking will do that after a while. First they give you a sensation of wellbeing and relief, but after a while the whole interaction changes - you take them just to feel normal, but they're not really doing much for the pain itself. Then, after a while, you realise that the pain often gets worse when you take them, and eventually, it reaches a point where they are very thing that is causing the pain. Problem is, once you get into long term chronic pain management, it becomes very difficult to tell what is causing what, and many people don't realise what's going on, often upping the dosage to dangerous levels. Most pain is psychological, and these drugs are designed to create long term dependency by ensuring that the perception of pain is ongoing and never really heals. You only realise this once you stop taking them, but of course that is easier said than done, and in some cases it can be dangerous if not done correctly.

Jason looks like an old man now, James too.

Anyone who has suffered shoulder injury will know that even when the rehab in the shoulder you can never really play as hard as you used to. I've never been able to play aggressive music since my rotary cuff repair.

Jason rules. Kinda resembles Billy Bibbitt from "Cuckoo's Nest" with this haircut. 🤘🤘🤘

Jason look like loud red

Wow man we have alot in common. Including our names. Lol really trippy .

Bass

"He fuckin left the band!!!"

Newsted looks like Lou Reed now. How ironic is that!? 😆 Asking for a table.

Newstead you r like lou reed

I think Jason made a good decision. No matter how much I like the music I see they are egomaniacs. Also he was there during their golden age, after he left their new albums were meh.

Say some prayers for Jason so his hands heal up he developed some weird hand problem and it took away some of his musician abilitys pray he gets his abilitys back because without Jason metallica wouldn't have kicked ass in the 90s and early 2000s they were unstoppable metal kickassery lol , but if you are a fan of metallica still they made a fucking kickass jam called LUX Aertera , i might have spelled that A word wrong lol its there fastest jam since battery dam good shit they just made it in 2022 really fucking shreds hope one day Jason can do a final concert with them all the fans love the band when they were all together that new tan fella muscle guy they got tho that replaced Jason he is a good musician as well tho so least they got someone that looks heavy metal as fuck haha

Yeah addiction will steal years of your life, Jason just record and self publish music. You don't need to tour or nothing just release new music. Put it out there. The Newstead band had some great music.

A drinker without a drink. Damn

JN is a Mensch

Does he have a book?

TCB Taking Care Of Business...

Jason could be Lou Reed if Metallica went out with LULU

It's all justice and bass i guess.

Look at you Jason, you look great, sound great too! So glad you’re not with those guys anymore, you’re WAY better people without those scoundrels!
