BO WAS THE MAN. I had the good fortune to play drums with Bo on most of his gigs from 2000-2004. His huge talent was matched only by his huge heart. He was incredibly generous, loved kids, love to laugh and tell jokes. He changed the face of Rock n Roll, and he changed me as well. I'm a better drummer and a better person having know Bo.
RIP Ellis
Peace, Tom Major

Hey Dave, sorry I got my decades mixed up. I was with Bo right before you from about 1991-1995. I hope someone organizes a tribute concert so we all can meet, swap stories and play together.

Tommy

This morning when I told my two very white bread children that Bo Diddley had passed away, they cried and cried. Even they understand what this man did for all of us. Music today would be a lot different if there had been no Bo.

I think it's a fine sentence. I find myself rapping along "Bo Diddley put the rock, Chuck Berry put the roll." :-)

Appearing on "The Ed Sullivan Show" in 1955, Mr. Diddley was asked to play Tennessee Ernie Ford's "Sixteen Tons" Without telling Mr. Sullivan, he played "Bo Diddley" instead. Afterward, in an off-camera confrontation, Mr. Sullivan told him that he would never work in television again. Mr. Diddley did not play again on a network show for 10 years.
