    Good for Joe. I always remember reading about Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly playing cards together in the back of the tour bus, then in the evening playing for segregated crowds.

    Wow! You don't always know who is standing right next to you.

    It is heartbreaking that Ella Fitzgerald and her friends once had to ask if a restaurant would serve them.

    He's more than an average Joe, I'd say. Great story. Sad about the owner closing the store. We never know who we might be serving.
