People are amazed at the longevity of the Stones, but BB King is now 88 years old, and he still tours all over the world every year (I'm pretty sure he doesn't need the money)...

King is also known for performing tirelessly throughout his musical career appearing at 250-300 concerts per year until his seventies. In 1956 it was noted that he appeared at 342 shows. King continues to appear at 100 shows a year.

One of my favorite BB King shows was a concert I took my Dad to on the wharf in Seattle - it was a clear summer day, and Mt Ranier looked beautiful in the distance.
