made a surprise appearance last night in Anahiem at the Trans Siberian Orchestra concert at Honda Center. The first hour and forty minutes was the traditional TSO Christmas show. The second half started with new music from Night Castle and finished with Joe doing two extended version songs. THE PLACE WAS ROCKIN' and it was freakin' AWESOME................

He hasn't forgot how to play guitar at all......

Did Joe know where he was?

He seemed reasonably coherent and claimed that life's been good to him so far.....

Over the years, he has lost his fair share of brain cells. But, he can still play a mean guitar!

Joe's been sober now...again...for about 10 years. He fell off the wagon once the Eagles re-united and began touring again. It's been a career long struggle with alcohol and other addictive substances for Joe and now that he's much older he's accepted the fact the stuff can control you, you just don't let it win.

He said he had to realize he was ready to get in control. I saw him in an interview and he said once his wife left him, he thought maybe it was HIM. ANd yes, the man can still play that rock and roll.

Nine - Best show I've seen in a long, long time. It lasted nearly 3 hours and was well worth the money! Joe Walsh was a special treat and I'm sure he doesn't follow the show around.

Joe is one of the greatest of guitar players, stoned or sober.

I saw him on his birthday. Stevie Nicks opened up for him. She slammed a cake in his face during his set and he was not amused.

Saw TSO up here in Sac the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Awesome

3+ hours of rock, pyro and light show tech.

Walsh will become the player that future guitarists will name as being a source of 'influence'
