Rick's "Ten Stories" had just been released. He was scheduled for a concert but had transportation issues. By the time he arrived at the venue, fewer than a couple dozen fans remained. If Rick had explained the situation, said sorry but not tonight and cancelled we'd have understood. We did in fact give him just that opportunity when we heard why he was late. But Rick instead said thanks for the offer but give me a minute or two to set up and ended up doing a full concert for the few of us. A very special evening.
