He also had to undergo surgery and had an extended time to heal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHearing the recovery time after this procedure was a bit of a blow. I knew I did not want to disrupt our tour for that long,&#8221; Ramsey tells\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/country\/dave-grohl-gifts-old-dominion-matthew-ramsey-his-concert-throne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">People<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The idea to obtain the throne began as a joke, Ramsey explains. Guns N&#8217; Roses singer Axl Rose has also borrowed the throne before.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo many jokes were thrown around about using Dave Grohl\u2019s throne, finally we just decided to ask and see what happened. I\u2019m sure Dave didn\u2019t know that when he created this thing, everyone would want to use it. But, it has been an honour to sit on, and more importantly, it\u2019s allowing us to keep the show on the road. Our fans are truly grateful. We owe him big for that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The band&#8217;s Georgia show on Feb. 27 was the first show Ramsey performed since the surgery and with the throne. He revamped the throne with one major touch, adding Old Dominion&#8217;s logo in place the Foo Fighters&#8217; logo.<\/p>\n<p>Old Dominion and Jordan Davis are coming to Caesar&#8217;s Windsor June 13th.<\/p>\n<p>See you there!<\/p>\n<p>~ chris lukas<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Old Dominion&#8216;s Matthew Ramsey is sitting in style on Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl&#8217;s iconic light up guitar throne that he used on tour.
