Re: Meet and Greets?

I obtained a package with M&G passes included for the Nov. 15, 2014 St. Louis show at the FOX, so excited! Also curious as to what goes on during a M&G with Joe? Have seen other cases where it is like walk in a line, hand celeb or artist your cd, t-shirt, etc. They sign it, pose for a pic and you're done.

First off, welcome to the forum.  I've never had the opportunity for a M&G yet but from what I can gather from others the way that you are describing the M&G is how it sounds it's done.  Although everyone has made it a point to mention that Joe is very gracious with his time and enjoys meeting/talking with his fans.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you obtain the M&G passes, through the local PBS station?  My wife and I are also going to the St. Louis show (VERY excited) and I'm hoping to obtain M&G passes for the St. Louis show through some Street Team efforts but I have no idea yet if I will be able to get the passes.

Funny to see one of my older threads pop back up.  Obviously I never expected Joe to do meet & greets before every show to a tune of in some cases well more than 50 people.  His appreciation of the fans sometimes astounds me.

Will Joe Bonamassa sign a photo of him you got off the internet?

He will sign just about anything.

Re: Meet and Greets?

He will.  He signed a boob in Grand Rapids at a M&G a few years ago I was at. It was weird for him I'm sure, but he took the plunge.
