Rock'n'roll legend Chuck Berry died on Saturday at the age of 90.

In the hours following his death, musicians, celebrities, and loving fans shared tributes to and memories of the man who pioneered a genre.

With hits like “Johnny B. Goode” and "Roll Over Beethoven," Berry defined the sound and style of rock'n'roll in its earliest stage in the 1950s. 

Twitter users dredged up particularly memorable moments in his long career—like when Berry played with the Beatles on the Mike Douglas Show in 1972—remembered his signature dance moves, and remarked on his singular impact on modern music.

Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
