I met Ronnie and Wayne and father in Schaumburg IL in 2000, what a treat. I went back in 2010 for his 40th birthday with his pops there, ad usual Ronnie rocked my socks off. Ronnie if your reading this, I'm hoping that you remember Buster.
I remember Ronnie when he was a backup guitar for his dad. He was good then..... NOW HE PHENOMINAL!!!! I told him as he was playing at Mattesonfest in Matteson, IL.10 years ago, "HEY RONNIE....YOU WENT AND GOT REAL GOOD MAN". He smiled and tore the place up.
His music speaks for itself, but he is a wonderful person. He was on a few of my radio shows, and my mother called in on one. Whenever I saw him, he'd ask about my mom. It was like he was a fan of hers. He was always appreciative to the recognition I gave him, unlike to some snotrag legend wannabees who played live in front of 15 people.
Just saw these cats in Buffalo last week. Ain't nobody in the joint not movin' the whole time. They brought the thunder. He did the Howlin' Wolf impression and I spilled beer on myself. Didn't think he could pull it off but he nailed it!
TOLD HIM AT THE CT BLUESFEST --- I WOULD TRAVEL TO CHICAGO MID JANUARY TO SEE HIM ! HE THOUGHT I WAS NUTS .... BUT I LOVE THE BLUES AND I WOULD SQUEEZE IN BUDDY GUY'S CLUB AS WELL
Audience blues have a lot of effort. "A" for effort!!! "B" for blues! "C-Z" if any of us know the actual words to "Louie Louie". Howling on the Wolf!!! Hoo-yah!!! G'day y'all!!!
