Re: Im going to see BB, my first real headliner concert

I saw BB on his 80th birthday tour in St. Louis and it was a great show. An added bonus was KWS was opening for BB and I had seen KWS once before and loved his stuff. Joe was also playing, opeing the show for KWS. I had heard about Joe from a few who had posted on the KWS boards, I think Deezer was one, and looked forward to hearing Joe for the first time. I was blown away by Joe and wished he would have played through KWS's set! BTW..I only check the KWS site about 2x a year now!


BB King is a must see show!

I saw BB the first time in 1975. Most recently last year. He of course has a few health problems and is not the same physical body as 30 years ago. It doesn't matter he is still THE KING.

If you've never seen this true gentleman of the blues, it's a must. He won't be as animated as in his younger days, but even in a chair, he's going to give you a "schooling". He will have IT until his last day!

For over 80, BB is still going strong.  He can play one note and make it sound great.  We can seen him multiple times in the past years and he never disappoints.

Roy,

Go see the great BB! His music has gotten better with age and the stories he throws in are something to be heard!

Does he still have it? Can Doyle Brunson still play poker?
