Famous musicians who train?

I know that Maynard from Tool trains BJJ or did, Stephen Jenkins from 3eb supposedly did a Muay thai smoker.

I could be wrong but I used to train muay Thai under Khunpon in Atlanta and around 2006 or so I swear I saw one of the members of the Zac Brown Band training in our class.


Very random thread but was just curious which famous musicians have trained or train currently?

none of them are "famous" exactly but tons of people in hardcore bands train

singer for Atreyu has been training MMA for several years now, seems to be pretty decent

Yeah I remember hearing that.

TBH I made this thread after seeing a picture of the Zac Brown Band and being like "I know that guy!". Somehow I even remember faintly something about him being a musician.

Silly thread really.

Sherdog photographer Dave Mandel wasn't in any bands that I remember, but was a fixture in the 90s hardcore scene as a photographer and owner of Indecision Records (who put out tons of crucial 90s hardcore)

forum member Fred Hammer is a Nardcore legend- not sure if he was in a band either but he did a zine that I can't remember the name of

the guitarist for Merauder was wearing Gameness gi pants (wtf, right?) last time I saw them

the singer for Merauder, Jorge, trained muay Thai back in the 80s/90s- you can see his muay thai tattoo and shirt in the video for "Master Killer": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ES9IzkdNTo0
never seen him fight but I hear he was good in his prime (kind of old now)

interesting

Slash is a forum member.

Snoop is an avid thugjitsu trainer.

Rikki Rocket from Poison trains BJJ

A few of the Zac Brown Band guys train and are MMA fans. Their manager is Rampage's entertainment manager (the one DFW used to bitch about a lot re A-Team. Ha). Phone Post
