They say never meet your heroes but, while we inevitably hear some horror stories of rude celebrities and ego-tripping rockstars, sometimes meeting your hero is exactly what you’d hope it to be: a once-in-a-lifetime experience that rewards your faith in an artist or player.
The best (and, sometimes, worst) become timeless anecdotes that you can recycle at the bar, at rehearsals, or, er... to complete strangers on the subway. They might even give you some insight into the player, help you develop your own guitar skills, or maybe just leave you feeling like there’s an actual person behind the persona.
