Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
Having, as Joe said, a "world class" music venue in Coachella would be awesome. Right now, they just have the Coachella music and arts festival, that has been (in my honest opinion) declining in quality over the years. And that usually attracts the younger crowd, while the biggest city close to the valley is Palm Springs, which is a Baby Boomer mecca. So maybe this new venue would bring in older artists and older fans.

While I'm not onboard with the Eagles moving on, it was cool to see Joe come out to the opening and it's always cool to hear him talk!

Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
I think it's a nice size stadium, not as big as Staples or the Forum so maybe it will attract bands like Joe's there. It's hard to fill a big place without touring with another band. I think it would be an ideal site for Joe. Wouldn't it be great to see a Daddy Daughter show or tour. Joe will be there for Vet's Aid maybe Irving will give him a break on a solo show. LOL
It should help Coachella attract some good shows too also it can be an all year round site Maybe help build the economy around the arena.

Re: Joe in the Press/Blogs/etc.
My neighbor and I were talking yesterday about rockers who stayed here in SoCal. One thing to another and we were talking about bands, Eagles, REO, and Chicago. He said how Chicago was his favorite band, He's from ILL. Said when he was a kid his Mom had to work and he, sister and brother stayed with a lady and her son M-F. He then said the ladies name was Mrs Walsh, Joe's mother. He said basically he and Joe were together every week for a year. His nephew actually wrote Mrs Walsh telling her about it and how he was a fan of Joes. She talked to Joe and got him a backstage pass to one of Joe's concert.
Now I'm going have to get with him and try to get more info on Joe as a kid
I belong to a Gretsch site and if you put Joe Walsh in the search there are pages of post with people mentioning Joe, from his guitars, couple old pictures even one of a member getting an aluminum pick from a friend who was Joe's yoga instructor. The site is about Gretsch guitars and anything to do with them from who plays, models, pickups and models. I like it, it's a good bunch of people and really helpful when you need something. They also talk about other guitars too.
Heres the link if you're interested, you don't have to join to look.
