Crap. Bo Diddley Died
Bo Diddley has died. This sucks. Despite the fact that he was long past his hipster prime, he still rocked a lot of group house parties–specifically mine. I picked up his greatest hits on vinyl for cheap and would always crank up “Mona.”
So thank you, Bo Diddley.

I should have used this headline: “Bo Knows Heaven” for this blog post.

Actually, Cherkis, I think the headline you went with made the point far more effectively.

Bo lived at 2614 Rhode Island Avenue, NE in the early 60s and recorded “Bo Diddley Is a Gunslinger” there. Is the place on the National Register? Somebody check.
