the Mark Twain quote is so true.
Thorogood was our 1st time as an opening act for a well-known band but in 1989 and through the 90’s we toured with way bigger names than that (Stones, ZZ Top, Keith Richards, Robert Plant, Steve Ray Vaughn to name a few) and guess what….everyone of these people were great to hang around with, treated us like equals etc… Plant would come into our dressing room and have a beer and chat, same as Steve Ray but no beer!
when I think about the “little People” like George I realize it’s them that are lacking big in confidence and the others like I mentioned act normal and give generously because they are very sure and confident of themselves.
