Several years ago when they envisioned the project they mentioned that they were going to invite Dave for the christening party. I kind of rolled my eyes and let it go.
Fast forward six months or so and he showed up to play an acoustic show. I wonder sometimes if he did that because he's a stellar guy or if he did it to make me look like an ass. Maybe both.

A year later my friend at the local record store asked him to show for National Record Store Day. I didn't say anything, and that's good because the Foos were playing Cleveland the next night and he came riding in on his Harley. The rest of the band soon showed up and they did a short impromptu show in the empty store next door. I missed that but I was there the previous year when Joe Walsh dropped in. He's a area kid who lived nearby when he went to Kent State.. He was on campus during the shootings. We used to see The James Gang in battle of the bands shows.
