Tomorrow Chuck Berry is 80. He is one of the most influential figures in 20th centuary popular music and still playing (once a month) in a local club. He was the first live musician I ever saw, back in 1964 when I was a kid of 14.
Hope he has a good day, and may his example reach other senior musicians and encourage them to perform live again.
