Holdsworth moments

 

 

I took my son who was about 22 at the time down to Rochester to see AH.  He is a real fan ( he grew up listening to AH music being played all the time ).  We got to our hotel and I said, lets walk down to the venue to see where it is.  We got there and I said "wouldn't it be wild if we just saw AH standing here?".  We turned around and there was Al.  Of course my son ( Taylor ) freaked a bit.  We chatted with him and he went off to set up.  We got back to the hotel and were eating dinner.  I said "wouldn't it be wild if Al was staying here?".  We turn around and there he is sitting at the bar eating his dinner!  We got to the show ( which was awesome, as usual - not enough people though! ) I said to Taylor, "lets hurry back and get to the bar, I just know Alan will be there!".  Sure enough, we're sitting there and Chad Wackerman and him walk in!  He was right beside us!  We let them have a drink or two then discussed the show with them ( in his usual self, Al was dissappointed with the performance ) We assured him it was awesome then left them alone and went to our room.

 

All in all, I couldn't have asked for a better birthday present for Taylor - he'll always have that to remember!

That was my favorite Allan moment for sure!
