Music News Gossip

Bo Diddly had a stroke near the end of a perfomance the other night. I saw the story yesterday.

78-year-old Diddley told his audience that he wasn't feeling well during a show in Council Bluffs, Iowa, on Saturday night.

This man is almost 80, and still performing. Wow.

Here's a link to the CNN story (5-18-07):

They think he'll be ok.

Love Bo Diddly. Our band "Missing Stateside" actually got to play with his son "Bo Diddly Jr." back in March of 07 at a bar called Nuts & Bolts in Albuquerque. Kind of rugged around the edges...but lots of fun. You can check out part of the show on video if you go to www.myspace.com/missingstateside and then go to the videos. I guess he jumps on stage once in a while and sings some of his dads songs in the local area here.
