There's no way you people are shorter than I think you are. A human being can't survive being any less than 250 pixels tall. Don't know how grindy does it.

The coolest person I met was Dick Dale. He waited after the show and talk to every single last fan who stayed behind to see him. No extra money to see him either, and he signed autographs. I got a Strat pickgaurd sign by him. I got to meet Steve Morse and I got tongue-tied, I didn't know what to say, but he seemed really cool though. Met Vince Martell from Vanilla Fudge, he was cool as **** too.
I could definitely see Dick Dale being a really nice guy.

I'm quite tall and therefore lonely.

Here's my Steve Morse Dixie Dregs Blizzard story. Back in the winter of 78 or 79 we scored tickets to see them at semi-local college. The night of the gig a major blizzard hits. Like really bad. We're young, stoned, and stupid enough so we say **** it and head out. Luckily there was no sane people out on the roads at all so we fishtailed our way to the gig.

The band arrived before the storm and were pretty juiced up and wanting to rock. Problem was instead of between 500 to 750 folks the audience ended up being maybe 2-3 dozen folks tops.

**** it. The guys made us all feel like their inner circle, let us sit up on the stage, and even took requests. I believe there were beers and weed flowing pretty freely. They played a killer Kashmir that night that blew everyone's brains off.

Awesome guys, awesome crew and a magical evening. I've seen Steve a few times since and brought it up to him and he always belly laughs about it.
