The Best Blues in Town
I guess some may argue that Buddy Guy’s Legends has almost become too big. I guess I can almost agree with that. There are some who want their Blues Clubs so dark you can barely see the stage. They probably also would prefer them filled with smoke and want the performers to sit with their eyes closed.
At the same time, there is no denying that Buddy Guys is a blues legend and one of the greatest guitarists you are likely to see. His performance during his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame still resonates with fans, like myself. He blew other guitar legends like Eric Clapton right off the stage.
So, when you come to Chicago and want to experience the Blues in a way that will leave a memory for life, you probably need to visit Buddy Guy’s Legends. There is always music. Often, Buddy himself shows up to play.
As such, here’s what is going on at the legendary blues club this week:
