BB Rumors true??

I heard a rumor the other day that BB King was going on tour once again this summer and that it was to be his last tour.. Not suprising.. he's ten years older than God.. Anyone else here about this? If it's true I'd love to see him one last time..

I just took a peek at the officical BB King website an could find no mention of it there...

I had heard the same thing, Dave. The concert here in Albany is billed as the last chance to see him on tour. The local radio stations say that he will continue to perform at special events, concerts, etc., but that no more large-scale touring (he still does a considerable number of dates per year).

he was here last night frost, in Albany at the Palace. talked to someone who was there (unfortunately I listen to XM radio and I didnt hear about it) that he put on a hell of a show for a 80 year old with a full 2 hour set. shame on me for missing it

The last time I saw him was three years ago. At 77 he still kicked ass, you'd swear he wasn't a day over 50..

He rocked the house with Caldonia..as always.

Yeah, I missed it too - Terrapin. Went skiing with the young 'uns instead on Saturday. Palace is a great venue, too.

Rock on, BB King.

Fulghers - is he coming to SLC?
