    Default If You Could Spend An Afternoon.....

    Wolfgang's Vault did this on their FB page today.....

    If you could spend the afternoon with a musician, dead or alive, which one would it be?

    I answered it with Jimmay Page.

    I think we all know which one I'd pick, so I'll say why. I have a lot respect for his talent as a musician, songwriter, vocalist, and arranger (is that a word?). I've come to have respect for him as a person and how he lives his life. He has a sense of humor that I think I'd like. Mostly, though, I'd just like to argue about sports with him for an afternoon.

    That guy would have quite a few busy afternoons VA! I'd Love to ask him about what his motivation was for some of my favourite songs from his solo albums. They weren't all hits but I love them. I'd also ask him about his parenting skills. His kids seem so well rounded!

    So if you see me walking all alone, don't look back. I'm just on my way back home.

    Thanks to Pebble Beach, I've spent a few afternoons with Glenn Frey! Therefore, I'll go with Stevie Nicks.

    Glenn is too obvious, so I will go with the other obvious choice, Mark Knopfler.

    I'd have to go with Glenn because he is such a great story teller. He can recall in great detail conversations he's had over 30 years ago. He paints a vivid verbal picture and can laugh at himself -- plus he's pretty easy on the eyes!!

    Any of the Eagles, although I'd probably do slightly different things with each of them.

    Glenn - probably watch a game of rugby / Joe - go down to the independent music store & listen to stories... actually Glenn would probably remember even more stories... / Don - bush walk / Timothy - just home with the family yakking.

    Not sure if there are a lot of other musicians I'd want to spend an afternoon with - at least not until I'd caught up on their music and career!!
