He sat on a chair the whole time he was on stage, but his voice was strong and he spoke between songs about his personal experiences growing up in the south. <BR/><BR/>His appeal transcends the generations too. We're baby boomers and expected the audience to be our age, so we were surprised that half the auditorium was probably under 30, and they knew all the words too!<BR/><BR/>"Rock Me Baby" seemed to be a crowd favorite that night.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06875378679299157108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077075252525438159.post-40470613894301433602009-02-04T05:46:00.000-08:002009-02-04T05:46:00.000-08:00well done and well put....I'm glad you finally sai...well done and well put....I'm glad you finally said it - no the music did not die.<BR/><BR/>I was trying to remember the first time I saw b.b. king in concert - I think it might have been around the time of this vid or it may have actually been in 1970.<BR/><BR/>be still my heart the other day I just got tickets to go see joan when she comes to cleveland on march 7!!!!!<BR/><BR/>word verfication: frotmen - ha ha!mouse (aka kimy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09385557065971602436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077075252525438159.post-69813295641296118022009-02-03T20:49:00.000-08:002009-02-03T20:49:00.000-08:00That's a wonderful video, isn't?
