I was fortunate to see John Lee hooker twice. The first time when he was touring with Canned Heat during the Hooker N' Heat days, the 2nd time in Vegas when he was quite old.
The Vegas concert was pretty entertaining too. The band would start playing one song and he would start playing another, so the band would have to adjust quick. He must have done Boom Boom Boom four or five times. Still, i appreciated getting to see him again.
BP, it was the best concert I ever went to. In an old movie theater so the venue was fairly small. No warm-up act. Canned Heat played the first set, then Hooker played a solo set, then they ended the night by playing a set together. Just like the album.
