As promised, here's our Q&A with musician Jo Burt. After the introduction two weeks ago we left it open for you to send in your questions. Well, we're back and Jo has your answers! With all of Jo's musical experiences and stories from the road you might want to kick back and put your feet up for this one!
Jo has written, toured, recorded and performed with many artists including Jason Bonham, Jimmy Page, Paul Rodgers, Black Sabbath, Elton John, Bob Geldorf, Roger Taylor, Bryan Adams, The Troggs, Freddie Mercury and many more. From flying across borders and passport controls in private jets, being led by police escorts, performances on navy ships, and having Mick Jagger in the audience while Madonna was the waitress... Jo has a few stories to tell!
