    I met Billy a week ago today when we visited the Apollo - it was an absolute pleasure to meet him and to hear him recount his fascinating stories in the flesh. He is incredibly personably - a warm, engaging, interesting, witty, positive and happy gentleman. I recommend booking a tour of The Apollo and meeting Billy when visiting New York..! Thank you Billy should you ever see this!!

    Love the Apollo! The place is much smaller in person, it was surprising! Billy is so cool.
