I've got a chance to meet Trey soon. Anyone got specific q's?

[No Nice Guy]

So I've been living in NYC this year, and I'm right across the street from a guitar shop.  I went in the other day to get picks, and wound up chatting with the owner for a while.  Apparently Trey is a regular there.  I also am probably gonna work there, the owner said I'd inevitably meet Trey multiple times if I chose to.

Anyone have a specific question for him? 

Also that store has some beautiful old guitars - I played a 335 from 1961 he had and it made me want to sell all my possessions for it.

-
- why is Trey's bday wrong on his booking photo when he got arrested? It says April but his bday is September?
- is it true you have to pay Gail Zappa $10k every time you play Peaches En Regalia?
- 2nd Mike's jam. Fish was wrong (originally). Bring it back.
- is it "MOMA Dance", or "Momma Dance"
- Dog Log, please
- Buffalo Bill
- Sweet Adeline, Carolina too
- continue mixing up setlist orders. Get rid of conventional song placement. Put Moma Dance in 2nd set. Play Vultures more! Whatever you consider an opener play in the 2nd set. Take closers and open with them. Don't get complacent.

Have A Cigar (Trey on vox)
I'm your Captain (Page on vox)
Suffragette City (?)
Cover Steely Dan?
Cover Yes?
Listen to Chris Smither

Last but not least,
Thank you. Please know how much what you do means to so many, and thanks for redefining and reinventing yourselves to continue to bring us this hope that we call music.

Out of those I'll probably bring up the 2nd jam, Dog Log, Have a Cigar, and that last bit.

I plan on asking for some playing tips and tricks/begging him to give me lessons for some reason.

Tell him he needs to be a speaker/instructor in a guitar clinic like he did back in 1995 (which most of us have the recording of).  He could even charge money and most of us would totally be there.  I think that would be awesome.

Ask'em why he shelved the Oce'Doc. It's a guitar shop afterall, doesn't seem inappropriate.

I was actually planning on asking something similar, about how he decides which Doc to play.

Also obvs gonna ask him to let me play one, even though I feel like I know the answer.

[Down_With_Sco]

Ask him about the green languedoc as well! That's the one I'm most interested in. We know the least about that one!

Hmm, I think asking too many questions may weird him out. I dunno I got that vibe when I met Derek Trucks and Warren, but they're nice guys to talk about other stuff with. Who knows though. I'd ask him:

-What was some of the most important things you've learned as a musician?
-What do you do to warm up your hands before a gig?

Yes, of course i'm only going to actually ask a few of them.  I'm just looking for suggestions and plan on asking whatever comes to my head in the moment but stick to only a couple questions - don't wanna bug him.

The most important question is why is his birthday wrong on the booking photo when he got arrested!  It says 4/13/66 but his bday is in 9/30/66....or so we've been led to believe!  Is it a conspiracy?  Is 9/30 not his real bday?  Was he ever really arrested?  Inquiring minds need to know!  LOL

I'll try to remember to ask him that.

Ha! I can see it now. "Hey Trey, do you lie about your age? Why does your mug shot from your arrest that almost ruined your life say you're older than you claim to be!?"

I would also ask him if someone will be wearing a black crusty T w/ pocket for the Chicago shows.

Haha...not someone....HIM!

Exactly which body parts did you get caught stealing when you got suspended from UVM?  Did they smell kinda funky?  Were they embalmed?
