Chuck Berry health scare in Chicago
Written by admin on January 2, 2011 – 9:43 pm -| Best wishes go out to Chuck Berry who fell ill during a gig in Chicago last night.
The 84-year-old rock ‘n’ roller was performing at Chicago’s Congress Theatre when he slumped over a keyboard an hour into the show. He received medical attention and was back on stage within 15 minutes, but soon left the stage again as he felt too weak to continue the show. |
