Topic: 05/09/14 Buffalo, NY

The missus & I had the pleasure of attending this show (along w/meet'n'greet).  We were apprehensive as she has MS & is confined to a wheelchair, making outings difficult.  Tamara from J&R & the staff @ the theatre he played were very thoughtful & helpful & all went well.  As we waited for Joe, the guy in front of us was showing people an Epiphone LP Special II that he won from a local radio station along w/tickets & meet'n'greet.  He said he had never heard of Joe but couldn't find a buyer for his tickets.  He had Joe sign this guitar & left (not sure if he even attended the concert).  The next day, I was checking the local Craigslist for killer guitar deals.  Yup, that's right.  There was the guitar.  He wanted $300 for it.  The wife immediately called & offered $100.  He never called back but lowered his price several times & even offered to try to remove the autograph (to our amusement).  He called this morning, asked if we still would pay $100 & we bought it.  We will hang it next to our lithograph & at least it will be appreciated.
