Probably

Joe Walsh

I don’t tend to run into celebrities. It’s never been a thing with me.

But a long time ago my first husband was in AA with Joe W.

He came home one day from work and said we’re going to a bar.

Part of the reason I’ve lived this life is that if I doesn’t ‘feel’ off, even if it sounds off, I tend to be curious enough to show up.

That’s how I ended up in a tiny bar in Encinitas three feet away from Joe on guitar. Then later being introduced. It was a weeknight. The only people in the audience were guys in the program, Joes family and a few stragglers.

I remember no details about this impromptu performance, except that I was witnessing pure talent like right there! Talent, years of practice and more bravado then anyone else in the room, (which if you know anything about the AA demographic, is saying a lot).(sorry for the generalization, I’m sure there are plenty of super humble people in AA too, not so much that night though)

It was sooo cool.
