About 30 Years of Pick Swapping - Stories Behind

You know, standing in the first row, you raise your hand, hold your guitar pick in your fingertips and wish to catch the attention of the Guitar Hero in front of you. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
I've got some success stories. Please fill in the gaps or correct me if you remember the gigs (and dates) better. Feel free to comment and share your own pick-related tales.

Evan:

Evan Johns / LeRoi Brothers, Tavastia 30.10.1984
Harry took me to an another Texas R&B gig. LeRoi Brothers have gained reputation as a fierce live act, and it was easily decided: "Check This Action" in Tavastia!

They were something anarchistic, loud and "juvenile delinquent". I took Evan for Steve Doerr (never seen any pictures of the band), but his sound and shaking of the Telecaster was good enough to encourage me for a swap.

It was easy: during the latter part of the concert in front of the stage, I shouted - he came (don't remember the song).
