WOW. Amazing. For a guy who is 81 he was amazing last nite. Just loved his concert.
He makes that guitar of his just reach out and pull you in. Unbelievable.
I am still in awe over having seen this great legend.

He's one of Tims' idols.
Glad you had a great time!
He blew me away... I see how he has been so influencial in the music world, he plays a mean guitar and still belts out so darn fine blues. WOW.

He's a major guitar freak.. lol (tim)
Oh no way, then yep he would have been in his glory last nite. King is so entertaining too, he has great stories to go along with his music.
Reminded me of my grandfather in a way, always had some fun story to tell, I guess when you are that old you got lots to say.... (that is what King said last nite and as I age (stop laughing) I feel the same)

I got to meet him a few years ago, after working one of his shows at one of the venues I work at. Sat next to him on the couch in his dressing room after the show, while he autographed a photo of him. B.B King is a really nice guy!! Saw the whole show from the pit.

As it was very different to all the stuff me and my mates were listening to at the time, I went to see BB King in the late 70's on my own. My mates missed a great night in a small intimate theatre in the presence of a legend.
