BB King Plan

About 10 years ago I had the privilege of getting to see BB King from the 4th row center of the Oklahoma City Civic Center.  WOW--you can pick up a lot from being that close.  Here are a few of my vivid memories on this day celebrating the life of a legend who passed yesterday at age 89.
  • He was still ROCKIN' at age 79;
  • He was clearly having a good time;
  • No way he "needed" the money (my story);
  • He did not sing and play the guitar at the same time;
  • The civic center was packed with people offering their money, time and enthusiastic cheering to let BB know we loved his mojo;
  • He chose a few of his good buddies to come along for the ride and play in the band or do the warm up act--how fun does that sound?

Here is the question I have been asking since that concert--"WHAT CAN I (YOU) DO NOW TO BE ROCKIN' AT AGE 80?".
