    Happy Birthday to the King! I here he still does 100 shows a year. I saw him at the Front Row Theater in "Cleveland"
    years ago w/ Dad and brother-in-law. Bobby Blue Bland was with him. Women were walking up to the stage and
    pulling there Bras off and tossing them to the guys. I was underdressed in my jeans and T-shirt. A lot of the women
    had on there best furs. Guys well dressed. BBs horn section was tight! and he was great of course.

    They had a short segment with BB King on the CBS Evening News last night - which I heard on the radio :-P
    I was amazed by how strong and lucid he sounded at age 88 (unfortunately, I didn' see the video so I don't know how he's holding up physically)... pretty remarkable man.
