    Last night I went to see BB King perform! I had no idea that he was 78 years old!

    I had a great time listening to the legend. I made it a special l point to go see him because I've noticed a few celebrities that I wanted to see would die while I was thinking: "Hey... I should go see them some day.". Well... I wasn't going to let BB King go and die on me, so I jumped at the chance!

    I love his music, but I have never been to a concert before and I had no idea that it would be so loud. I was expecting a mellow "lounge room" volume. I just can't handle loud environments... it overwhelms my senses and causes me a lot of discomfort. Fortunately I am in the habit of keeping ear plugs in my car for when I find myself somewhere loud.

    Overall I had a great time! You should go see him!

    WOW, Elsewhere! What a TREAT it must have been to actually see him play! I've been a big fan of his for many years, but never got the opportunity to see him myself! Good for YOU!

    Sounds like you enjoyed the concert..

    I too am one of those kind of people who needs to keep ear plugs around.

    I can't do loud continuous noise or music. It has to be subdued a bit, especially at a concert.

    sincerely

    So glad you got to see the man LIVE! Boo and I saw him a year ago, and BB rocked the house. His band is excellent on their own, as well.

    I think it stems from being JW. Earplugs at a Concert. LOL!

    I saw BB King perform two summers ago, at an outdoor ampitheatre. (No ear plugs.) I really, truly, enjoyed the show. Even the warm-up acts were pretty fabulous. Definitely a fine way to spend an evening!
