Jayden Webb, a 25-year-old metallurgist from Wollongong, achieved a dream when he was pulled on stage by British rockstar Yungblud at Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena on Saturday, January 10. Webb held a sign claiming he could play the song 'fleabag' upside down, and the singer called him up to perform.
Growing up in Newcastle, Webb learned the song in just an hour after his wife Lyndsay suggested he try. He first mastered it right-handed, then borrowed his wife's guitar to learn it upside down, as he is left-handed. Webb said the experience was 'unreal' and that he felt pure adrenaline on stage.
Webb has been playing guitar since age eight and previously performed at the Sydney Opera House as part of the HSC showcase Encore after graduating from Cardiff High School. He now works as a metallurgist and prefers music as a hobby, saying it keeps the fun alive.
