    DR-Hibeam 9s. Im sure that helps him get that oh so unique sound

    He used 9's because of all the bending he did, the 10's gave him tendinitis.

    see i find that kinda funny. I used to use 9s, but i moved up to 10s with no problem (I wanted a little thicker sound, without tearing up my hands). I crack my knuckles all the time and ive never had any fingering problems with 10s. Its kinda funny because Billy and I have very similar lineage (highly irish) and we have a smiliar body frame. oh well, i guess its a thing as you get older too
