Topic: Funny thing happened....
I was sitting in some IT Training in Richmond, VA yesterday and was a little late, so I missed the instructors introduction. However, after lunch someone had asked his name and he said it was Mike Bonamassa. I, of course, said "Are you any relation to Joe." To which, he replied, "Yep, we are second cousins." Apparently, his dad and Joe's dad are first cousins, though he did say that he does not see or talk to Joe much.
Apparently, the Bonamassa music gene is not present in every Bonamassa.
