Hey, at least he wasn't Chuck Berry...
that's one deli tray you don't want any part of.

both of them.
But Bo was one of those bandleaders who MIGHT pay you for the last two weeks of the tour, but probably not.
Irrelevant here, and poor form.

Diddley, like other artists of his generations, was paid a flat fee for his recordings and said he received no royalty payments on record sales. He also said he was never paid for many of his performances.
"I am owed. I've never got paid," he said. "A dude with a pencil is worse than a cat with a machine gun."

Absolute giant.
There is not a week that goes by that I don't listen to Bo Diddley.

Sorry, you gentle souls.
Didn't mean to harsh on anyone's mellow.
I went back and fixed it.
