80?  Wow!  ?

 

I bet I could keep some chiropractors in business if I tried to do the Twist now and he's got 20 years on me! ?

In the 80's I auditioned at SIR Studios in NYC for Chubby Checker ...there was something like 50 guitar players hanging around waiting for their number to play . 

When it was my turn I went on stage gave him a hug , plugged in and had a blast ..

IIRC  the audition consisted of  us playing over an extended  Funky Blues Vamp in the key of E ...not any of the 50 / 60's tunes he made famous ...

The band was great. Chubby was very personable and gracious .  And before I forget ...I felt real good about what I played ....yet I didn't get the Gig ....?
