They probably hoped the "buzz" the next day in school would be, "HEY! Did you catch the Measles at the dance last night?"
...and that's SOME backline for a (presumably) high school band!
The young man with the guitar is one Chris " Critter " Eldridge who is the acoustic partner of young Jazz phenom Julian Lage. Critter's father just happens to be Seldom Scene co founder and banjo player Ben Eldridge. Chris is also the guitar player in the Punch Brothers.
That's hilarious.....Joe is the s**t...lol....you can tell from this picture that even at that young age he was the same guy we know today....with that stoner drawl way of talking.....a perfectly unique, talented and lovable character....
I saw the Measles with Joe Walsh, they were excellent. There is a pic from the same concert or period at Kent State University where JW is playing a Guild Starfire.
