Re: On this day in JUNE Bonahistory

In regard to the June 12th show in Greenville, I got a really great picture of Joe with my family after the show, he was on cloud nine.  Hard to believe that was five years ago.

On June 17, 2006, Joe played at Jakes Toadhouse in Decatur, GA.  Place was packed and it was hot inside.

Some pictures from the June 17, 2011 BCC show at Hampton Beach to add to the list.

Re: On this day in JUNE Bonahistory

Thank you sally.  It was a month yesterday that I started....feels longer than that!!! Work's really gonna get hairy for me soon for next few months, but I'm determined to keep at it...if I slip a few days, it may be tough to catch up.

As I look for and compile dates, beginning to really see that Joe was "always on the road." smile

Re: On this day in JUNE Bonahistory

Thank you Jane.  I corrected my BBC 6/19 - David A  comment a bit. smile

Oh no, a July date that you know of that may be hard to find?  Now I'm a bit nervous. 

If you didn't open your history books and let me peek - I'd still be back in May looking for date info.  It's good you held a little back as a test...how else does someone learn? smile

Been wanting to post about your current Avatar.  When I see it, my heart rate immediately drops 20 bpm...very tranquil picture, and the bottle only adds to the backdrop. smile

Re: On this day in JUNE Bonahistory

June 26, 2004 JOE FEST Dallas, Tx, great event that Phil Cornell and others produced. It was at the Majestic Theatre and had Doyle Bramhall Sr. as one of the openers. Had a blast with the BBQ at Stubbs, Joe did some acoustic songs and great food.  The first big Joe event of the time. Got to meet Stu Craig (the first street team coordinator) and other forum members for the first time.

Here's some pics from Crossroads - http://www.flickr.com/photos/24057301@N … 396306998/

Also, since so many of us got together for this from all over the world Bill S and his wife were gracious enough to have a big get-together the day before:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/24057301@N … 277581843/

I have a few videos on youtube as well.  This was the one that got the most views I have ever had on anything (over 120,000!):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hda3tws3Wy8 

Also some Ryan McGarvey stuff as well (good friend of Joe's and awesome guitar player)

Great, but very, very hot day.

Re: On this day in JUNE Bonahistory

Thanks so much Sandy!

Re: On this day in JUNE Bonahistory

This continues to be a lot of fun.  Thanks for keeping it going, to all.  Will be interesting to see what's in store for July.  I like the inclusion of forum Bonamaniac memories, it's most appropriate.

Play like you've worked at it, and don't worry about sounding like your influences.  You can't cheat on them, or your practice, anyway.  If you've worked hard at your skill, your audience will know it.

6/25/07 Hamburg Germany - Gruenspan

This was before I ever heard of Joe (I discovered him in September 2007).
But in the last seven years that I follow Joe I met a lot of people here in Hamburg that have seen EVERY show Joe played in Hamburg and still got all the tickets!
And NOBODY remembers that Grünspan-gig . . .

FYI: 6/07/07 Buffalo NY - The Trale

I believe this should be The Tralf.  Wasn't at that show, but I did see the Steve Morse Band there.
