Chuck Berry collapses at Chicago show

Post by kiramdear »

At 84, I have to wonder if he ought not be getting to bed a little earlier at night.

From what I know about him Chuck will likely play until he drops...... permanently. He loves music plus he needs the money. I hope he starts feeling better soon.

He and Keef should do another special.

Best wishes for a complete recovery.

I saw him in Nashville in the 1990's cruising on 2nd Avenue one night driving a huge 1970's Cadillac with one of those inflatable "blonde girls" sitting on the rear seat. I think he does it on purpose.

He collapsed at what was my old neighborhood theater--the Congress, on Milwaukee avenue. Saturday morning kiddy shows, 25 cents with 15 cartoons...
I guess it's become a music venue now. Grand old place.
