Cappy, I've seen the video of Chris with Joe. Chris was so nervous at first, but Joe was great with him. After a short while, Chris settled right in and had great questions, and Joe answered every one of them. It was the greatest thing to see Chris with his idol. I know Tracie was just as happy, and she couldn't have been any prouder of her son. Man, I was even proud of him! He's a fantastic player. Joe was absolutely the best with the time they spent together, and went above and beyond the "lesson" at hand. It was just magic to watch.

I think my new favorite song is Andelusia. Joe's words

Hi anibur!

They say you can make anything out of duct tape. Go make some gloves :-)

al, you just reminded me...

The other day I was at Target with my daughter and we had just walked by and commented on the Rolling Stone mag with Beck & Clapton on the cover. My daughter asked if I wanted to buy it for her dad. Two minutes later Austin tweeted about being at Madison Square Garden seeing Beck & Clapton. Twilight Zone anyone?

Here ya go cappy and McDave.... Joe and Chris, the lesson :)

It was truly the biggest dream come true for him, I think the only thing that would ever top it is to play on stage with Joe....but then mom would definitely have a heart attack, LOL!!

As Chelle said, Joe was marvelous with Chris...he knew this was going to be scary even as it was exciting...and he quickly put Chris at ease. He had Chris play whatever he wanted for him at first, just to assess where he was as a player...and then started going over stuff he'd taken note of, point by point. He wrote out a lesson plan and notes as he went, then gave that to Chris at the end as a reminder of what to work on. There were many, many things they touched on, techniques, ideas....near the end Joe asked Chris if he had any specific things he wanted to learn and then showed him those as well. He gave very generously of his time to Chris, more than we could have hoped for. It was....THE BEST!!!

Maybe Joanie and Mckenna can remember more specifics, they were there for about half of the time....I was busy running the camera and watching Chris watch Joe...lol!!

Have I mentioned lately that I love that Joseph guy? lol!

And Andalusia is right up there with my favs too...and Revelation....but really, there are soooo many favorites. I never get tired of listening to Joe's music, whereas other artists, I prefer in smaller doses.

BlueMoon- Its twice the size of Texas...plastic oceans...

Cheese- Thanx for sharing the pics of your sons lessons with Joe...what an awesome oportunity ! He looked pretty happy...... and a lil nervous....lol.

Ah geez Shel, I'm supposed to be studying & you post a link to Andalusia.............wot am I gonna do? ;-) BTW Our rain turned to snow this morning, & it's now back to rain, cold though..

Peace Lily...that's a lot of text about plastic, and life changing, I can honestly say I never buy my milk in plastic, we have an old fashioned Milkman....& he delivers in glass. Then again, it's all the supermarkets fault,...........too much..... I'm rambling LOL...

Good Afternoon Satchland.... Feelin' like crap today.... I might have strep throat.

Joe.... Good to see so much Blue. Always a pleasure to see you postin'. Can't wait to hear the new Chickenfoot cd. Got tix for the Hendrix tour. Can't wait to see that also. God Bless....
