About 15 years ago I had the privilege of getting to see BB King live from the 4th row center of the Oklahoma City Civic Center. WOW – you can pick up a lot from being that close! Sadly, he passed away four years ago. But his legacy is one that still impacts us all today.
Here are a few of my vivid memories from that experience as we take a moment to celebrate the life of a legend:
Here are a few of my vivid memories from that experience as we take a moment to celebrate the life of a legend:
· 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?
