Some Blues for the Weekend

by balaspa on December 6th, 2007

Since I seem to have gotten onto a bit of a blues kick this week, I figured I would at least post a few blues concerts and performances from the weekend here.  Of course, I immediately turned to the two bigges places I could think of when it comes to blues music.  Yes, that means Buddy Guy’s Legends and Kingston Mines.

I don’t care how commercial the blues snobs try to make you think Buddy Guy’s Legends is.  The fact is, the man is a legend and his club is fantastic.  You can view their website by clicking here

December 5th $10

Linsey Alexander 9:30pm

December 6th $10

Dion Payton 9:30pm

December 7th $15

 Diamond Jim Greene

Doug McDonald

Johnnie Bassett 11:00pm

Kingston Mines is a place right near where I used to live.  Before every show there was always a huge line, so if you go, I suggest you show up early.  Their schedule is not quite as easy to view as Buddy’s is.

As such, I am going to suggest you click on the link I have provided here and ceck out their website.  Do so by clicking here and take a look and then make your plans.  Careful, it’s snowing outside as I write this and it’s supposed to snow all weekend too.  Nothing can give you the blues worse than a nice car accident because of poor driving in poor weather.
