Latest concert announcement to come over the wire: B.B. King will play at the Strathmore in Bethesda on March 3rd & 4th, with New Orleans piano-great Henry Butler.

“B.B. KING…the definitive musician, brings his all new show to the Music Center at Strathmore. It has been estimated blues legend B.B. KING has played more than 10,000 concerts in a career spanning nearly 60 years.

Whenever the King of the Blues has carried his venerable guitar Lucille onto any stage at any time, the performance has become an unforgettable classic. He is here, along with his special guest…Henry Butler, for what promises to be two memorable evenings with THE KING OF THE BLUES !

B.B. KING tickets make the perfect Valentine’s Day Gift…”

…because nothing says I love you like the blues; “MY BABY DONE LEFT ME…HIGH AND DRY…THAT CHEATIN’ SKANK…” (OK– maybe those aren’t The King’s original lyrics, but still…)

Tickets range from $57 – $87.
