Get Well Soon Bo


WaPo: Four days after suffering a stroke, Bo Diddley walked around the intensive-care unit at Creighton University Medical Center, and doctors were encouraged that the singer-songwriter-guitarist would be able to perform again, his manager said.
I missed out on hearing Bo Diddley play. I had tickets once to hear him along with Chuck Berry, but some of Bo's many legal troubles caught up with him and kept him from making the show. Chuck did a set of Bo Diddley tunes for us which was a very cool thing to hear, but I always regretted not getting to hear the man himself. I hope he's up and playing again soon.
