From the weekend of May 8, 2017 - Randy is said to be writing & recording with friends (Brooke Lizotte, Art Ford & Gio Loria) in Los Angeles. Thanks to Brooke Lizotte for sharing.

Wow - I am so happy to hear Randy is out and about. TY.
This is just awesome!!! Keep on going Randy!! I hope we see a whole lot more of him!
Bassist James Bulger (Gun Hill Royals) is fortunate to run into Randy at a restaurant circa February 14, 2017. May it happen to us all.

Thank you for starting this new thread, NMB. It's great to see Randy interacting with friends and fans. I agree with ETG--let's hope for more!
Edit: I just realized I got Stuck On the Border with this post!!
WOW. Randy is finally getting to get some happiness in his life. Great to see him and Joe together. Its a shame that bad things happen to good people. The past 3 years really have taken a toll on this poor man.
How cool would it be if I were to have my very own Randy sighting this summer on my vaca trip to LA??
I think I would just pass out where I stood. :faint:
I teared up a little seeing Randy and Joe together. I wonder how Joe introduced Take It To The Limit. Off topic but I had a chuckle at that photo of Ringo doing his peace sign and Joe giving the finger :-D
Joe and Randy back together!
:spin::spin:
It's just fabulous. I'm delighted
Thanks for sharing the video and photos - so great to see Randy out and about, especially with good ol' Joe!!!
Thanks for posting these, TM! It's sweet to see these two old pals and band mates together.
Thanks so much for all the pics!!! :D I'm so happy Randy's getting out and that he was with Joe!!!
NMB, thanks so much for starting this thread, and thanks to all who contribute photos! It's so sweet to see these! :angel:
Delilah, congratulations for getting Stuck On The Border! :-D
I am beyond thrilled seeing the video and photos, and many thanks to all who contributed! Joe in his leather pants and Randy in his guitar shirt...those are some cool dudes! Love the smiles most of all!
Wow. Randy getting out and about again. So good to see him with his ole buddy Joe. This makes my day. Randy has overcome so much.
To borrow a line from Glenn, such a fine sight to see. The past few years haven't been kind to Randy (and not to sound harsh, but he does look slightly frail and older than he is) but it's wonderful to see him hanging out with an old friend and hopefully getting back out there again.
It's great to see the photos with Joe. When were they taken?
Friday night apparently - May 19th.
Tequila, those photos are lovely. Are they from Joe's web site?
I hope Randy gets strong enough (if he keeps drinking his milk) that he and Joe can reprise their Houston '76 stage entrance riding on invisible ponies. I think it was an homage to Monty Python's Holy Grail.
Congratulations to Delilah!
You beat me to it NMB.
The clip was posted on Joe's website on May 22nd but the show was from the 19th.

I love the photos tequila mockingbird, thanks for posting them.
I hope Randy gets an invite to Henley's birthday gig.
According to a Walshnese translator, Joe is saying in the video that Randy can sing higher than anyone and that he invented the famous Memorex "breaking glass" commercial.
For you young 'uns who might not know the reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-IvTF0xUxM
Yes, thanks for the pics TM!
Congratulations Delilah!!
You're funny, NMB.
I'm wondering about the "drink your milk" comment. Does anyone know if that was part of a commercial from The Roy Rogers show or something like that? Is that what Joe was quoting from ("Howdy partner", "Hello there, pilgrim"). Maybe Joe was doing a John Wayne impression. I can't recall if John Wayne did one of those "Got milk?" ads.
And thanks for the congrats everyone!
Joe was doing a John Wayne impression because Randy said "Howdy," like the Western boy he is :)
I interpreted "you better drink your milk" as meaning Joe sounded weak compared to John Wayne, and he better build up his strength.
That's just my interpretation though. What did other Borderers think?
Wow! It's great to see Randy out and about and visiting with Joe! Here's hoping his good health continues!
OK, I learned something today. "Get off your horse and drink your milk" is a famous quote attributed to John Wayne. However! At least one person claims that Wayne never said it and that it came from a comic doing a John Wayne impression.
Either way, that's a very agile comeback! Way to go, Randy. :bow:
Delighted to see Randy hanging out and enjoying himself!
Y'all forgive me for my ignorance, I don't know how to link this, but Rusty Young just posted a photo of himself and Randy visiting in L.A. on Facebook. Randy is smiling and waving, and Rusty says he "sends his love to all of you"!
Maybe someone else could post it here?
Arrgh, My apologies for the sizing. I gotta figure out how to edit/resize using Ipad.
Thanks for the heads up FF!
Two great talents and friends since 1966 that's awesome!
Dawn - Thank You. I saw it on Eagles Fastlane FB page and did not know how to post the link here either.
That's such a great pic!!! :D
Thanks for posting the pic, Dawn. Good size too! :-) I'm so pleased to see Randy up and about.
A few years ago, I read a post that appeared to be from Randy's wife. I was under the impression that Randy was under his wife's thumb, so, in the knowledge that she was visiting this message board, I made a concerted effort to get Randy out of reclusion.
I'm not claiming credit but I'm just so delighted that it has actually happened, although at a colossal cost. :neutral:
The caption for the Meisner, Young photo reads;
I presume the 'we' means Rusty and Jim Messina.Quote:
We just got back from LA meetings with the record label- BluElan. To top off a great trip, we met up with Randy Meisner. We've been friends since 1966. He sends his Love to all of you.

Maybe Jim took the photo :shrug:Quote:
After a series of acclaimed solo acoustic tours, Messina has now formed a dynamic new band, featuring Poco alum Rusty Young, which is touring through 2017 with shows all over the country.
Oh my! Randy looks wonderful! So does Rusty. Wonderfully encouraging signs from Randyland these days.
Chaim, there is indeed a 20-second video of Joe and Randy riding their invisible ponies onto the stage in Houston, November 1976. If only I knew how to link or post it here. It's on a closed (members only) Facebook page, so I can't just link to it.
Or you can just watch the whole concert. It's a good one. Joe and Randy are wearing matching Criteria Recording Studios t-shirts. Too cute, those two.
