BO WEEK: HEY BO DIDDLEY

Today Bo Week goes super live with Bo and The Duchess pumping out a ruckus versions of Hey Bo Diddley. Check out the camera work around 1:30. Bo is the man! The Duchess and the gals then start a groovy dance as the band goes into Bo Diddley. The hypnotic rhythm and monotone costuming from the stage is a cool counterpoint to the crazy dynamics in the audience. Like those familiar scenes from Beatles concerts, you will see 60s teens wrapped in a chaos of fashions and liberated by the music. I love seeing this band at work. The dual Space Age guitars and slick choreography are only the tip of a very deep, primal, and rowdy iceberg.
