    I met Bo Diddley at Gruene Hall. He was a very gracious man.

    I got to play with Bo a couple times. It's kinda like this. He doesn't like to rehearse, nor "repeat" himself.
    You just follow him and let it rip. He's such a pro it always works. RIP

      @@robertfeldman2417 Most of it was ad-libbed / "jammed" on the spot. Bo would start playing something and we would jump in and support it. We maybe might have played a speeded-up / "high energy" version of "Who Do You Love," but most of it was made up on the spot. Bo was great, and we just supplied high-energy support. Bo was a pro. We didn't rehearse one thing or song at the sound check.

      I've rehearsed with Bo lots of times. He loved rehearsing. He just didn't want to rehearse with you and was too polite to tell you he didn't want to play with you.

      How much money are you going to pay for this line? Hollywood needs better writers. Both Black, white, Chicano, Indigenous, Eastern European, German American, Canadian American, it doesn't matter! It's all Taboo Now! Everything is about Victim ideology and identity politics and nothing is about expression of free speech. Writers are too afraid they will get sued by the people they work for or get a knife in the back for being honest and speaking out against powerful players who could ruin their lives. American culture is on a downward spiral because no one will take any risks and expose themselves to social media outrage and ridicule. Welcome to the Ice Age! Who wants to visit Hollywood when you have to bring your own piss can to piss in since they won't allow tourists to use the Starbucks!

    Bo was touring with Ronny Wood this year.
    They came to Raleigh, NC a few months later to the Long Branch Saloon.
    At 20 years, this was the best and most interesting performance I still have ever seen.

      He's also taking over for Charlie Watts right now in 2021for the rolling stones tour since Charlie is out with hip surgery recovery.. If you watch the Chuck Berry tribute concert dovumentary Hail Hail rock and roll put together by Keith Richards, he is also the drummer for that show too.
