Can't believe it. He was a great musician and a real gentleman.

Woke up to pouring rain and this sad news. Even the sky is crying.
A truly unique master and inspiration.
Was fortunate to see him live a couple of times. First was on his 60th birthday, the last just 3 years ago.
Thanks for all the good BB. You are the King :angel:

I saw BB play in 2013 at The Hard Rock in Vegas. Amazing... Even in his mid eighties. Sad to hear he has passed.

The song "who's gonna fill their shoes " by George Jones comes to mind, there will never be another. :cry:
