I'm Bob, born and raised in Chicago, good to meet you.

Hope you're old enough to recognize some of the scenery from Maxwell Street in this video clip, if you're not old enough to remember, please enjoy a bit of history from our home town.

12. Oh snap!

I'm not a facebook member, so I can't view!

Quite a few years ago, on Directv, Bo Diddly was on the stage with Tom Petty, singing Mona, and I taped this concert and have it somewhere in my VHS archives. Tom Petty's band was the High Grass Dogs at the time I believe.

Had Bo lived, he would have been 85 years of age tomorrow, he was born December 30, 1928. He is so missed. One of America's greatest artists.

I found this except of the concert on Youtube.
