Topic: How old is Joe?

I guess I'll find that info in his bio, but yeah, how old is Joe...he looks quite young. I checked out the photo gallery here and was surprised!

Hi dragster,
It is true that Joe was touring with B.B. King at age 12.  He started playing at age 4 and was gigging in upstate New York at age 10.  I just discovered Joe a little over a year ago and couldn't believe I had never heard of him before.

Take a look at his bio.
