JACKSON BROWNE
I have this before but Music always touches
some part of your sole and there will always be a few of them that you remember
a special moment when you hear them again no matter where you may be. I was
driving yesterday and JACKSON BROWNEs Running on Empty came on the radio. Crazy
as it may seem I was almost on empty and heading for the gas station. I always
wanted to meet Jackson and he was playing at a local venue a couple of years
ago. I went down early in hopes of getting an album or 2 signed for a dear
friend who was always a big fan. I was able to get the attention of the Tour
Manager and told him what I would like and told me , " He would be right
back" I waited only for a few minutes and sure enough he returned and
said" Jackson would like to meet You" Whoaaaa. He took be back in a
waiting room and I just sat around for about 5 minutes and there he was. He
shook my hand and told him what I did as a Physical Therapist and
before I knew it I was giving him advice on an old shoulder injury that he had
and we hit if off fairly well. He signed my items not with just a signature but
wrote lyrics that he made up in his head as we were speaking. After about 15
minutes he invited my wife and I and the special friend to see the show. Great
seats and the manager told me the next time he was to be in town; you will be
our guests again. There is a funny side to the next time he was in town but
that will be another story. many of the Today's celebs private life's are in
the tabloids and I know he had some issues when he was with Daryl Hanna that I
do not like but I did see another side of him that was very private and
very interesting!
