============================================== I'll agree with you on Buddy (his concerts are a drag). But I saw B.B. a couple years ago in the Czech Republic and the show was so solid and inspired it damn near moved me to tears. And, no I wasn't blinded by the glory of seeing him - it was the 12th time I'd been to a B.B. King concert. I've been to two more since then. Those two weren't as inspired, but pretty hot nonetheless. MN
