About 18 years ago, I saw Chuck Berry in concert. It was in Pleasanton, California, and he played with Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard. It was a terrible concert. These guys were totally phoning it in, but I bet they were great in their day. At one point, Chuck figured out that they were running a video feed of him to play on the screens in the auditorium (for us poor folk in the back) and he flipped out. He stopped playing in the middle of a song until they killed the video feed because thought they were stealing his performance. It was horrible. I guess it’s hard to replay the glory of the past. Still, if you’d like to try, have a listen.
