My Brush with Greatness
Bart:
I was at a concert in Montrose, Colorado in the mid-80s.
My friends' band was the opener, and after they finished, my former
psycho girlfriend
and I headed back to the rest rooms. "If you finish first, wait for me"
she demanded.
I reluctantly agreed and turned to walk
in the men's room.
As I did, out walked guitarist Dave Mason.
"Hiya Dave" I said, "How have you
been?"
(He had been ill and it was a make up date).
"Just great! Much better!" he replied.
"Gotta run and get ready...hope you enjoy!" and he
headed off to prep for his set. I turned to look at my gf, and she was
awestruck, speechless.
"WOW! Did you know that was Dave
Mason?" she asked (after I already had a brief
converstaion with him). "Yes, dear" I answered in a tone of mock
sweetness. "He has to pee too!"
Bart, I know you're a big guitar rock fan, but remember,
those people put their pants on one leg at a time, just like everybody
else!
