Re: Street Team Stories: How has Joe's Music Affected You?
Well, I'm a real virgin; I haven't seen him live and I"ve only been a fan for a few months but I have to say Joe has reawakened my love for music as well as other things.
I suffer with depression and have a lot of medical issues.....there were financial problems etc..long story.
I lost my love for books, music and the like during a bad episode earlier this year and one night Palladia was showing one of his concerts. I really perked up when I heard/saw him play.
Memories flooded back of my adolescent years when I would traipse down to Greenwich village to see my idols.....Muddy Waters, Paul Butterfield.
Joe's music makes me feel alive and even grateful for the respite it has brought me.
And things like this.....
Wow Rick your post summed up how Joe as infected us all with his music and some of us have been fortunate to get to know Joe a little better and understand that he is a kind loving soul and the real deal. A truely wonderful person.
really make me tear up as corny as that sounds. I've heard so many stories and seen videos of how he treats his fans, just talking to people in general and it truly warms my heart. He does sound like a lovely person.
I"m so glad to be here and I can't wait to finally see him in person and who knows.....maybe even a handshake or a hug???
