Rock legend Bo Diddley is in intensive care at Creighton University Medical Center in Omaha, Neb., after suffering a stroke last weekend. Diddley, 78, was hospitalized Sunday after a concert in Council Bluffs, Iowa, during which he appeared disoriented.
According to his publicist, Diddley's stroke affected the left side of his brain, impairing his speech and speech recognition. It is unknown how long he will remain hospitalized.
Diddley has tour dates booked into late September, including a June tour of England, all of which are on hold for the time being.

fiogf49gjkf0d I just got back online and found out about his medical condition. I'm really sorry to hear what has happened to him. I've been a fan since I first heard the song that bears his name. I got to see him live in 1995 in Everett, WA. He was awesome. May his recovery be swift and complete.
