his return is - äähm - amazing.

He never said that.

He also did not play Zurich in 2009.

I saw him about three years ago in NYC at BB King's place. He played and sang pretty good and I thought it was fun. He only payed for an hour or so but like I said, it was fun to see him!

Yes, the same promoter as for the Le Cannet show that got cancelled, but the show has now been booked through Chuck's former agent, who is very reliable and he told me that things are looking good.

I saw him in London in 2004 and he was excellent. I'd like to see him again but have always avoided it in case it spoilt the memory of the first show. Bit silly on my part really.

Dunno...he was great when I saw him in 1987, now not sure about his sailor cap act, and it's not cheap...I think I'll spend that on The Who ;-)

I saw him in Munich in December 2007, I believe, and he was terrible! I was quite shocked at how bad he played and sang. I was disappointed to say the least. Hope you guys get a better show.

I saw him 10 yeARS AGO IN A SMALL 15000 CAPACITY clubin the uk for £10, he played with a local band for 45 mins, Unbelievebley good, peopled, didn't believe he would actually be there SO after the event everyine was kicking themselves for not going. He flew in to do 2 club gigs , one in Northampton then the following night in Oxford,then flew straight back to the uk.

I don't know what he got paid for that but lets say he was paid the full amount the clubs took that would be £30,00 for 2 nights work and the clubs must have maid their money on the drinks. I still to this day cannot believe I saw Chuch Berry for £10 and niether can anyone else.

saw him about 10 years ago in asmall club in Tilburg Holland 013. great show and about 6 years ago in amsterdam, heineken Music Hall with Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor. also a lot of fun. Prices were about 40 euro.
great stuff, but also a bit embarrassing.

hope the stones dont end like him

That is very interesting! Was the news article all BS?

Maybe CBII here on this board can give us something on this?

I haven't found anything on his web page. Was it the last year or the year before that Chuck was (supposedly) to play one concert in Europe and some people here even had tickets? I believe it was in France too. Didn't happen of course. Mr. Berry will not fly to Europe to do one concert.

I would be more than happy if he did a European tour and since I have never seen him, I would buy a ticket on the day they would go on sale, but until I see an official tour schedule on his web page, I am sceptical. Well, if CBII says it will happen then it I will believe it too, of course :-)

Well, he said he will do it and he has done one-off shows in Europe before.

He will also perform at Club Arena in Moscow, Russia on February 24th.

The show in France last year did not happen because the promoter was unable to cope with his fee at the time.

His official website is absolutely forgettable and has missed out on a whole deal of dates he has actually played.

He did make a poem about growing older. That's all. The papers made a BS story out of it.

Well, it seems strange to me, that he would fly overseas (at his age) for one or two concerts only. That doesn't mean, that it can not happen, of course. If it happens, I will be happy for the people who would be able to attend. And I would be even happier, if the whole thing would take a shape of a tour and Mr. Berry would come somewhere closer to where I live, so that I would be able to be there too :-) And I would be for sure.
