We first got to read Joe’s book BACKSTAGE PASS back when the ink was still wet. It’s a collection of stories from his years on the rock and roll road, with tales from tours with Ted Nugent, Joe Walsh, the Eagles and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, among others. Our favorite: Joe’s foiled plan to declare Charlie the Tuna chief spokesfish for the Save the Whales campaign.

Wonder if Don was aware that the complete photo shoot would end up online? Gotta give him credit for managing to pose for over 80 different shots without morphing into a prop.
