Have you met any rockstars?

I know there are a few of us here that partied too long and too hard in the glory days of rock and roll.

A lot of us, myself included, have mentioned how we saw so and so in concert back in the day,

Do you have a story to tell about any of those meetings?

I'm not a great storyteller, but one of my most memoriable moments came at a indoor concert that had several bands, The band I remember most was the James Gang with Tommy Bolan, Joe Walsh had already left.

But this story isn't about them.

In another thread people were talking about Jeff Buckley.
This is about meeting his father, Tim Buckley.

This had to be early 70s, and as I said, it was an indoor concert. I remmber The James Gang and Tim Buckley, but I'm sure there was at least one or two more groups there..

The James gang were playing when I started roaming around the area.
I managed to get in the band area.This was easy because back then there wasn't really a need for much security, but that changed shortly after.
But anyways, I was roaming around when I saw Tim Buckley sitting and smoking a cigarette.
I was a pretty shy teenager back then, but not so shy that I would blow an opportunity like that.

Seeing my chance, I walked up to Mr Buckley and asked if I could have his autograugh.
He didn't say a word,he just looked up at me and held out his hands,waiting for then pen and paper.

I hadn't thought that far ahead, all I had with me was some paperback book.I held that out to him.
He looked it it, then looked at me.
Then he took the book and bit it,and handed it back to me.
I'm pretty sure I awkwardly thanked him then took off.

The paperback is long gone, I'm sure some "friend" grabbed it, but that is something I have remembered for probably close to 40 years........
