Great Show last night. I was in the second row a little to the left. I won a meet and greet with Joe. I was a bit nervous as I was taken back stage before the show. Once I got into his dressing room he was really down to earth. He shook my hand and asked me where I was from. I told him that I had recently moved out here (Bay Area) from Colorado. He talked about how he lived in Nederland and Boulder in the 70's. I told him it is nice in the Bay Area but now I feel poor. He joked that he moved from Colorado to LA and he feels poor also. He asked me about the fires in Colorado and then his photographer took some pictures. I will post when I get them. He signed my ticket and gave me three of his guitar picks.

Thanks so much for letting us know about your M&G, Jeff. That is so awesome. If you weren't already before, I know you are probably a fan for life now. I can see how Joe would make you feel very comfortable. BTW - were you the only one that won the M&G or were there others there as well?

JOE WALSH ROCKS!!! :thumbsup:

I was the only one at the meet and greet so it made me more nervous. I sat backstage for about 15 minutes waiting until Joe's manager Smokey took me to his dressing room. There was a food, dessert, and drinks but I was too nervous to eat or drink. Once in Joe's dressing room, Smokey was there along with a photographer. He took four pictures that I will load as soon as they I get them. More than 12 hours later I am still "buzzing".

Wow - you had him all to yourself? And they took you into his dressing room? This just gets cooler and cooler!

What was the dressing room like? I've always been curious.

Here is a picture of this beautiful venue and where Joe and his band were back stage at the Villa. Joe's dressing room was the second window from the right. The Villa is right behind the stage. I did not pay attention to his dressing room probably because I was nervous. We took the pictures by the window. I will post as soon as I receive them.

I had to take a picture of the picture with my cell phone as the size of the original picture was too big.

JC, that is all just too cool! I can't imagine being the one and only person at a meet & greet! I wonder why there weren't more people there?

Thanks for sharing all this with us! And how was the show? How long did it last? Inquiring minds here! :lol:
