Winters is blind (been legally blind for years).
Johnny Winter better than ever
WOW! Got to see Johnny last night in a 500(!) seat house last night. His handlers sort of guided him in and assisted him off stage, but this guy has all the magic he ever had, if not more! Plays with his eyes closed, never looking at the frets! Used a pinky slide and a different axe for the encore and literally brought the house down! A show to remember!
