He notes that sober living “had a big enough effect on me” that the change he’s seen as a result has been a driving factor to “stick with it.”

“In figuring that out, I also realized that there were so many people who were going down that path, as well. Jerry Cantrell had just gotten sober around that time, and he was starting to kind of put his steps together,” Taylor continues.
