Having founded Bush in 1992 with Nigel Pulsford, Dave Parsons, and Robin Goodridge, Rossdale reflected on the band’s journey from their initial split in 2002 to their reunion in 2010. With five new albums and a greatest hits LP under their belt, Bush is currently on their Loaded: The Greatest Hits tour.

After the show, Rossdale likes to celebrate with his loved ones at an afterparty with good lighting and great hip-hop music.
