The legendary blues guitarist and singer-songwriter B.B. King took to the main Pyramid stage at the 2011 Glastonbury festival this weekend.

The 85 year old blues legend took to the stage with his trusty guitar Lucille and full band to deliver a performance that would put most of the younger artists to shame. Watch his performance of his classic “Why I sing The Blues” below.

This was definitely one of the highlights of the festival for me.
