Subject: Chuck Berry taken ill during gig
Written By: Philip Eno on 01/02/11 at 1:09 pm
Rock 'n' roll legend Chuck Berry cut short a concert in Chicago after collapsing on stage.
He slumped over his keyboard and did not move for a couple of minutes before being helped off stage, Chicago Sun-Times reporter Dave Hoekstra wrote.
Concertgoer Steve Handwerker told the Associated Press news agency that Berry fell face first onto his keyboard.
Berry, 84, later re-emerged but told fans he had no strength to continue performing, the Sun-Times reported.
With hits like Johnny B Goode and Roll Over Beethoven, the singer and guitarist is one of the pioneers of rock 'n' roll and influenced artists including The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Beach Boys.

A true legend. One of the last of his era!
I hope he is alright, maybe its his time to leave the big stage.
May God bless him with more healthy and peaceful years!

I loved Chuck Berry when I listened to old-time rock 'n' roll. I'm surprised he's still around, frankly. Get well soon, Chuck! Give us an encore!
