I am going to see Chuck Berry, live
By the time you read this, I will be on my way to a Chuck Berry concert.
Chuck Berry. Live. A legend performing hits from the 50s and 60s. Maybe he'll sing My Ding a Ling or Maybelleine, or Roll over Beethoven, or Johnny B. Goode....I get excited thinking about it.
He performs concerts about once a month at a place called Blueberry Hill in St. Louis. Tickets sell out fast and when they went on sale two months ago, I bought two.
Chuck is 87 years old. He has been playing since the 1950s and is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Famous for his guitar work, I am not sure what to expect. Will his hands and fingers still work magic on the strings? Will his voice sound good and strong?
So that is what I am doing today. ..... driving to St Louis, going to a concert that has no seating, reliving my youth and watching a rock and roll legend.
It's going to be a blast.
