B.B. King Tour Dates Announced
Posted by Aaron Mayagoitia on 11.06.2009
Not bad for an 84-year-old bluesman...
After recently reaching the age of 84, B.B. King shows no signs of slowing down.
A fall and winter tour featuring both solo shows and co-headlining dates with Buddy Guy will take the bluesman across the US. Dates are below.
After more than 60 years in the music business, King still takes his stage appearance seriously, thanks to some advice given to him by his second cousin, fellow bluesman Bukka White.
"If you want to be a good blues singer, people are going to be down on you, so dress like you're going to the bank to borrow money," told King to the UK's Telegraph in a recent interview.
