Blues…and He’s Back!!!
BB
KING

Save-on-Foods Memorial Centre,
Victoria
Doors: 7:00pm
Show: 8:00pm
Legendary concert performer BB
KING heads to Victoria for one
show only!
Independent producer Deborah J
Cameron presents the KING OF THE
BLUES on Thursday, April 26th at
8:00 PM. Joining the King are
eight of the finest musicians in
North America. Accompanied by a
full horn section, lead & bass
guitars, drums, and kicked with
a Hammond B3, BB King promises
to “rip the roof off” the
Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre in
Victoria.
Over the years, BB King has
developed one of the world’s
most readily identifiable guitar
styles. His spare phrasing, his
vocal imitation of his own
playing, and trademark left-hand
vibrato are taken for granted as
a part of the modern rock
vocabulary. In BB King’s own
words “ When I sing, I play in
my mind, the minute I stop
singing, I start to sing by
playing Lucille. “
BB King continuously tours the
globe to sold-out theatres and
stadiums. Besides enlightening a
new generation about the history
of Blues in African American
culture, he is a source of
inspiration to everyone. Eric
Clapton, George Harrison, Jimi
Hendrix, U2, and the Rolling
Stones are just a few of the
rock and roll legends whose
roots go deep into the blues of
BB King.
Victoria is one stop on a
national tour across Canada in
2007. BB King will perform in
Vancouver, Kelowna, Prince
George, Edmonton, Calgary,
Winnipeg, Thunder Bay, Niagara
Falls, Toronto, Ottawa,
Kitchener, Quebec City, Montreal
and Saint John.
