Some nice pictures taken by amateur photographer Bill Dillane of a 2006 Chuck Berry show.  You can check them out HERE.  Mr. Dillane won first prize at the North haven Fair with the picture you see here. According to Mr. Dillane:

Chuck Berry did a free concert on June 17, 2006 at Hubbard Park in Meriden, CT to celebrate that city's bicentennial. Chuck was great in his one-hour concert, and he displayed a lot of energy.

Nick Stargu of local duo After All was Chuck's keyboard player that night.  Nick has two videos of the concert on his duo's web site at http://www.afterallnikko.org/id6.html .  I believe the other musicians, except for Charles Jr., were also from this area.
