Topic: Pacific Rd. My first gig

Well what can i say

When you all said i was in for a Bonabaptism i did't realize it ment a rip roaring white water rapid hang on for dear life ride with a trip over the edge of Niagara falls for good measure. Big high to Geoff and his lovely partner. Geoff cept looking over at me during the gig and i wasn't really saying or doing much but i was in that stunned i can't belive he is doing that with the guitar mode. So what was the highlight of the gig? Well that's a bit like asking someone who is on the summitt of Everest "What's the best part of the view" the whole gig was the highlight!!!!! Let me try and sum it up.

The crowd expectant with a genuine love and affection for Joe and the boys,The band, tight as a drum, shining i their own right, One man and his guitar playing with passion and heart way beyond his years, happy faces eger to meet Joe and have a chat, old friends meeting up for a drink and making their way home happy to have been part of something special.

I had a chat with Joe and got my guitar strap signed,he was't feeling to well and i thoght to myself well if that's him when he's not well. A interesting development was that there were several members of the national press taking photos, i think the word is spreading



Well role on July 17th when he is appearing at the Carling Acadamy in Liverpool city centre

Big hello to all Bonamates and keep on rockin

Re: Pacific Rd. My first gig

Hey good to see you there Stevie boy - could tell just by looking at you that you were being babtized my friend. You just kept shakin' your head in disbelief. Made up that you got your strap signed. Great gig but the lighting was lousey, just not enough front lights!

By the way the gig in Liverpool is on the 7th July Steve!

Re: Pacific Rd. My first gig

Stevie Boy,

So glad you enjoyed your whitewater rafting experience down the Bonamassa Falls.  We told you, didn't we? 

Great review.  I'm so glad you were able to meet Joe and have your strap signed and am SO CONCERNED to hear that he is STILL not feeling well.

Welcome once again.  Hang out with us, you'll have fun!!

smile  Libby  smile

I know that Joe could play one of those kid's guitars with the plastic strings and make it sound good-

Thanks for the Bonabaptism report. I love the white water rafting analogy! Lucky for us all, it never gets old. The Thrill is Never Gone! Welcome to a healthy addiction!  Cathy

Re: Pacific Rd. My first gig

I would like to thank all the new (and old) bonafans from across the pond for all the fantastic reviews!  I haven't seen Joe and the boys since late last year and he won't be in my area until June and quite frankly, I've been going through withdrawal.  With all the reviews, photos and video clips that have been posted from this tour I'm so excited to have had a portion of my bonaddiction satisfied.  Thank you again everyone, bonafans are the best!
