A story about Trey Anastasio
Almost met him today! I got to be in a studio audience of about 50 at XM Radio. I might’ve stuck around and gotten an autograph, but I got shy.
He was a little shorter than I imagined – maybe 5’10” – with brilliant golden-red hair right on the edge of needing a cut. Wore an apple-green button-down shirt. Smiled a lot and was very funny. Gave us a lot of insight into his creative process (it was mostly an interview, but he did about 5 songs with acoustic guitar). I was a little far back to see his playing, but I did get to see his head most of the time.
A nice experience overall!
