Last night I attended the most amazing concert ever.
Center stage 11th row seats to see the King of Blues. What an inspirational man! 77 years old...diabetes and worn out knees no longer allow him to stand during his performance, but his fingers still fly over the frets of "Lucille", and he can still belt out a song with more gut-wrenching feeling than anyone else.
He's a man who's doing what he loves, and he says he'll continue to tour and play until he dies. I hope I have a small percentage of his vitality if I reach 77.
