Who Will Berry Whom?

When Nikita Khrushchev made his 

provocative pronouncement,

"We will bury you!"...

Soviet Premiere Nikita Khrushchev.

President Eisenhower missed

a golden opportunity to offer this witty reply:

"WE WILL BERRY YOU!!"

I saw Chuck Berry once when I was in college.
He was traveling with a pack of 1950s rock 'n rollers, doing the

rock 'n roll revival thing. This memory brought to mind a time 

I was at the Indianapolis Airport waiting for an early flight. 

About 30 WWF wrestlers straggled in and sat all around me. 

The thought I had was that one wrestler couldn't fill a night club 

but a whole squadron might fill a small stadium.

This is what the Rock N Roll Revival was about... packing small

stadiums like the Convocation Center in Athen. Even Chuck 

Berry's patented duckwalk would get old after awhile if he tried

to carry the whole evening alone. So these veteran stars came

together to share the stage, increase their audience size and 

get paid to do what they loved to do... Perform.

The Platters, Shirelles, Sha Na Na and a host of others...
Was Bo Diddley there? He might have been. 

Chuck Berry was fo' sure.

using as many homonyms as I could think of, & it was a lot.
