In the most recent episode of the Beardo and Weirdo podcast, hosted by the talented comedian Craig Gass and renowned Five Finger Death Punch bassist Chris Kael, Gass reveals intriguing personal anecdotes about his close friend and legendary Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh. Sporting a stylish Eagles hoodie that he acquired during the band’s electrifying performance at the iconic Sphere in Las Vegas, Gass reminisces about the time he invited guitarist Frank Sidoris (known for his work with Slash ft. Myles Kennedy and Mammoth WVH) to attend the unforgettable show. Gass humorously notes, “I introduced him to one of the guys in the Eagles,” without dropping names, though Kael playfully prompts him to reveal it was none other than Walsh, a friendship that has spanned over 15 years.
Shifting gears, Gass recounts a memorable occasion when he took an ex-girlfriend to a lively barbecue gathering filled with fellow musicians. “It turned into a jam session, and my ex, who is quite introverted, was understandably out of her comfort zone,” Gass explains. He made every effort to create a welcoming environment for her, but unfortunately, she reached her limit just as the jam was gaining momentum. Recognizing the situation, they prepared to leave the fun-filled gathering, but not without a funny twist.

As they exited the house, Gass hilariously narrates how the door swung open, and in walked Joe Walsh, guitar in hand, ready to join the fun. Walsh inquired if Gass was leaving, to which he confirmed, and in a comical twist, his ex-girlfriend, oblivious to the presence of rock royalty, asked who this legendary figure was. Gass filled her in, and she innocently questioned, “What does he do?”
This amusing encounter left Gass regretting his timely departure, as he missed the chance to witness a truly unforgettable jam session with Walsh!
