Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

i'm not sure I follow. Was he a friend? Did you go to lots of his shows?

I've gone to many of his shows, spoken to him on a few occasions, played with some of the people he has played with, even played at venues he's played at. I've admired him from the first time I heard him. I've met some of his family, even.

We weren't friends and he surely didn't know my name - but he did remember speaking to me previously.

If you shared the stage with him, I doubt you'd find a more gregarious person to do so. Some of my on-stage personality is heavily based on him. I've flown to another country just to see him and some friends of mine perform.

I miss him. I miss his performances. I miss his endless trying new things and his copious recordings. There will never be another BB King.

That's an awesome tribute to the man right there!

He was one of the greats, even though he wasn't a 'great' guitarist. I've been able to cover any BB King guitar since like my first or second year playing guitar. That's fine. He didn't need to be a great guitarist.
