1. Did you ever see him in concert?
I wish I had been able to. A friend of mine saw him play in France one summer.

3. I would have been way too young.
Hell, I was 10 in 1989 when he toured for In Step.

7. I was lucky enough to see him 5 times
Once, as the opening act for the Moody Blues. Talk about a mismatch. We left after 3 songs of the Moody's set...and we were all fans.

12. I saw him at Auditorium Shores in June of 1985
It was EXCELLENT!

I feel so lucky to have gotten to see Stevie perform in Austin. There was no better place in the world to experience his music. We loved him and he knew it. :)

6. Have you ever listend to Los Lonely Boys?
Texas Flood was the inspiration for the their sound. They were given an unmarked tape of SRV - first song was Texas Flood and they instantly fell in love. They had never heard of him before. Like 'em or love 'em, the guitar player can play a mean SRV'esqe guitar.

17. This is for Stevie.
Ooh ooh now baby
Tell me how have you been
We all have missed you
And the way you grin
The day is necessary
Every now and then
For souls to move on
Givin' life back again, and again
Fly on fly on
Fly on my friend
Go on
Live again
Love again

Day after day
Night after night
Sittin' here singin' every minute
As the years go passing by...by, by, by
Long look in the mirror
We've come face to face
Wishin' all the love we took for granted
Love we have today

Life without you
All the love you passed my way
The angels have waited for so long
Now they have their way
Take your place...
