Topic: Promise to a 5 yr old Joe fan

Hey Joe,
    I promised my 5 yr old friend Cody, your fan, that I would write you for him.  He's a finicky eater and I said, "Ya' know I bet Joe likes chicken strips."  He said, "Are you talking about Joe Bonamassa?"  (And he has no trouble pronouncing your name correctly.)  I said, "I am talking about "Dirt In My Pocket" Joe Bonamassa.  He munched that chicken strip right down and said, "Would you tell Joe I ate all of my chicken strip?"  And so a young fans request and a promise kept.

I'll bet that Dirt In My Pocket Joe eats his vegetables too.

Patty, I find much humor in this since I can't even count how many times I try to get Nico to try foods by telling him that Joe likes them.  Especially fruit, which is very unpopular with Nico!  As a result, at every show I take him to he always insists on our bring fruit to the band; sometimes I can distract him out of it, sometimes I can't.  On the way to the Elgin show last May was one very good example of my not being able to.  I don't remember if I told you about it at the time but if not I'll have to 'cause it's pretty funny! 

That's cool that it worked for Cody.  May one chicken strip lead to more!

Sounds cute but what's a 'chicken strip'?

Re: Promise to a 5 yr old Joe fan

ha ha, that sounds like the description of a politician......you know the one. True enough though, i've been suspicious of the word 'goujon' for some time.....I thought it was made up by a supermarket chain smile
