Jeezz.

Mr. BB King is in Brasília !!

His concert was incredible. 78 year old man. The *olda* the *betha*... His band is fantastic and his charisma is the same.

It was his last international tour. He will not leave US any more. I'm glad I could see him last night.

I'm very happy.

Best

Ari

BB headlines an annual blues fest here and every year i go

the man is amazin' and at his age i don't know for how many more years he will be able to do the touring but his shows are not to be missed

The "allstar" lineup always includes Buddy Guy ,no youngster himself but he could teach the pups a thing or two about guitar licks

plus the man is totally off the hook , crazy

DR. John has also made the show a many i can not at this time remember

live blues guitar

ooh yeeah

can't wait for this years lineup at the ives center

BB King loves to play at Hill Auditorium here in Ann Arbor. I've seen a bunch of times and every performance has been awesome.

I saw him here a couple of months ago. I am more suprised that he came to Indiana than to Brasília

i don't think the man stops touring !

Big venue , little venue , hell a patch of grass with two cows and a farmer !

he just keeps on playing as long as there is an audience and if you have seen the live BB you justknow he enjoys sharing the gift

The man is always smiling

and a BTW :

The one year BB did not make it to the ives concert park blues fest Johnny Lang filled in as the headliner

not too shabby

Of course Buddy Guy was there as always wowing the crowd with his brand of blues/rock guitar work
