Reminds me of my dad taking me to see Lionel Hampton some years back. We left pretty early in the show, as he seemed unable to keep up with his band.

There’s a time to rest on your laurels. 88 sure seems like a good age to do so.

I hate the fact that this entertainer got heckled by classless people. But maybe it is time to put Lucille down and enjoy that fact that what he did gave millions of people enjoyment for many years.

I dunno. His call, obviously. Saddens me, immensely, hearing that this happened to him on stage. The man can play, and is a master of his style.
