Hey Joe: (greeting and a great song)

My 16 year old son, Ian, met you and had his Les Paul signed by you in San Diego at the Guitar Trader recently but could not go to your show. He will be attending the Musicians Institute in Hollywood next year, and is a wicked lead guitarist, with influences of You, Malmsteen, Di Meola, Van Halen, Ritchie Blackmore, Hendrix, Page and others. We saw info a while back about Chickenfoot and I told him I would buy tickets when the band came to San Diego. Now I see CF is playing a 21+venue in San Diego in September and he will not be allowed in. Not cool!!! I know your agent books where the band can get the maximum fee, but this is shutting out young people who want to go. What can be done? Casinos just want over 21's to come in and gamble b4 and after the show I gave him Surfing with the Alien when he was 7 years old and he's hooked. My son wants to see the band!!!! Help, is there something you can do, hes a very talented(prodigy)young guitarist, very good young man, I take him to only the best shows and want to take him and his twin sister to this event. He has met Ringo, and had another guitar signed by Ian Anderson, as his name is Ian too. I used to operate Humphrey's Concerts in San Diego and he and his sister saw many great shows and met many great performers. Ian has a double cut Gibson Les Paul, an Ibanez S series, an ovation, a miniture Les Paul with IA's autograph, His Les Paul Special with your signature, A full Marshall Stack, and a Jimmy Page 12/6 string SG coming to him for Christmas, already purchased.
