At a truck stop years back maybe mid nineties i think it was in Missouri she stood behind me in line as i was paying for my breakfast i said good morning Ms.Raitt.
I also have ran into Sheryl crow and Ace Frehley separately in truck stops never said anything to them.
As young kid Ace was one of my many guitar hero’s yet at that chance meet. We both were in the men’s room washing our hands and I’ve never been one to converse in public restrooms.
Oh and i saw Chuck Berry once at that service plaza getting out of his tour bus in middle of night. It was at that east bound plaza on Pennsylvania turnpike the plaza on 276 before it turns into 76 proper.

You got out a lot more than me!!

I saw her at NOLA 10 years ago and she still is all that! Still gorgeous, still a great performer with no slowing down and still sparkles with life.
