Les Paul had a weekly gig up unto he died.
So the idea above abut playing in his restaurant/club a couple times a week has precedent and would be cool.

I wanted to go to New York to the Irridium.
I never made it.

Don't know that I'd travel to see BB though.

I've seen him twice when he was younger--and both times were great shows.

    Great thread, jmr986. :!:

    I too wish I'd seen him then but I was thrilled to see him on stage two years ago. What made the experience special was being able to share it with my son who is a huge fan.

    It saddens me to read the negative comments about a man who has devoted his life to the Blues and given so much to so many over the years. As ZZDoc said, it's a matter of respect. Yes there was some rambling and yes there were a few sour notes, but this did not in any way diminish the thrill of the experience for me or my son. God bless you, BB!

    Cheers!~
    BM

Thanks Bluer :)
