a tribute post<\/a> to Toby that included photos of him and an emotional message.<\/p>\n\u201cOur self titled debuts came out on the same day, April 20, 1993\u2026 Toby and I spent quite a bit of time together early in our careers\u2026..We had a lot of good times and conversations about what we wanted out of our careers and our lives,\u201d he wrote in the message. \u201cHe was a maverick. He did things his way, on his terms, a true artist. I always have and always will have tremendous respect for his artistry, dedication and fearlessness to do his thing.
We all will miss you, brother.\u201d<\/p>\n
