I really like the idea of a "roast". But the ones I've seen have been brutal and not something I'd look forward to.

Maybe they should rename "Republican Presidency"
and call it "Republican Roast"

Who doesn't love BB King?
I saw him at Wolf Trap two years ago with Jeff Beck, and it was spectacular.

Believe it or not there are some here who
don't like B B. I am surprised they haven't shown up yet!!

I'm with YOU! I've been to numerous BBKing performance in CA -- including Monterrey Jazz Festival. He performs an AWESOME SHOW! Music which strums through your soul for days and days afterwards.

I respect endurance in the music profession, and also by the amount of imitators spawned in a particular idiom.
BB belongs up there with Muddy Waters, Albert King, T-Bone Walker, Robert Johnson, Elmore James and Willie Dixon.
Only he is still with us, and should rightly be celebrated.

Who doesn't love BB King? I saw him two months ago. The way he plays is like a force of nature. It's amazing.
Oh, and Bobby "Blue" Bland opened up for him.

I wonder if anyone said something to the effect, "Only in America can someone make a fortune off of playing the same 3 notes"?
