It says all you need to know about Buddy Guy that the music genre that he has come to embody, the Chicago Blues, could never hope to contain him. In the more than 55 years since the Louisiana moved to Chicago and embarked on one of the most influential careers a guitarist could ever hope for (just ask Eric Clapton), Guy is still pushing the envelope of his artistry. But what is remarkable about this Rock N' Roll Hall of Famer is that he isn't sacrificing an iota of his relevancy while doing so. Guy proves it not just in concerts that are as high energy now as they were when he was heralding a rock guitar revolution in the 1960's, but also on the charts. His 2010 musical autobiography-of-sorts Living Proof was the blues legend's highest carting record to date, while his 2013 double disk follow up Rhythm and Blues was #1 on the Blues chart and showed 77-year-old to be every bit the firecracker as guest stars Kid Rock and Arrowsmith. If his last few decades have proven anything, it's that a ticket to a Buddy Guy concert isn't simply a tour through blues history, but an opportunity to see a genre's foremost practitioner still at the top of his game, with as much to say as ever has.
Show was great... Jonny was a little too much into the blues, instead of rocking like he usually does. Buddy was just getting into it when he got frustrated cause the show had to end at 11:00.
Incredible performance at beautiful venue! Had a wonderful time!!
Buddy Guy always amazes! The bonus on this event was young Quinn Sullivan. What a talent - at eleven years of age!! .. WOW The only drawback to this event was it was too short. We could have listened all night.
WOW, WHAT A SHOWSMAN !!! I SHOW NOT TO MISS, GOTTA LOVE THOSE BLUES
The concert was another true performance by Buddy Guy. He seems to involve the crowd in the concert experience like no other "Blues" artist. It also took place at a great venue. The entire concert/weekend was a surprise birthday present for my wife and what a great time it was. Thanks again to Mr. Buddy Guy for the totally entertaining evening.
Buddy Guy was amazing and Quinn Sullivan was out of this world. That kid is going places. The two of them together have really wonderful chemistry. Great Job!
All I have to say is Totally Amazing!!!!! I have enjoyed Buddy Guys music for years and he really knows how to modivate his crowd!!! Quinn Sullivan Is Brilliant he really knows how WoW his crowd!!! Put the two together and Its more than wow, amazing and Birlliant all in one!!! Thanks for a Great night!!!!!
I have seen Buddy Guy in concert 8 times, and this was the worst show I have seen him perform. He must be resting on his laurels, because he is in great physical shape for someone approaching 73 years old. He seemed to have unending energy, that was evident. His guitar playing and singing were great--there just was not much of it on Friday, July 10. He started his set at 9:45 and was done at 11:00, and, in that time period, I think his young 10-year old prodigy played as much as he did. One song with Quinn Sullivan would have been plenty. I came to see a legend play the blues, and all I heard was some note-slinging kid screech into the microphone. Buddy, if you are going to give your fans just pieces of a few of your songs, I'll fire up the CD player and listen to the "real deal". And save alot of money in the process.
Buddy Guy was terrific, but the sets with he and Quinn Sullivan were lame in my opinion and a real disservice and distraction from one of the greats.
I have never been disappointed seeing Buddy Guy play and this event was no exception. It was also a great pleasure seeing Tom Hambridge and of course the remarkable Quinn Sullivan as well. If you have never been to a "blues" show but always wanted to then mark your calendar for the next time Buddy is in town. You will be glad you did.
Awesome show. Buddy Guy has still got the voice, the sense of humor, and oh yeah, he can still play the guitar!
Buddy Guy was great and so was Quin Sullivan. However, I paid to see Buddy Guy and most of the night was other acts. First up was this singer song writer, I can't even remember his name. He played a snare drum and had a piano backing him up. It was ok, but I actually got bored. Then Quin came on, this kid was pretty good for a 10 year old guitar player. He did a nice version of little wing. The singing was a little ear piercing at times, but hey! he is only 10. He played for almost an hour. It's great Buddy has taken this kid under his wing and decided to give him some stage time, but come on, I came to see Buddy. Finally Buddy came on around 10:30p.m. He was great as always. The sound was a little boomy at times, but great for the most part. Even my wife enjoyed his performance. He was funny and played great. He played for about 40 mins and then Quin came out and played with him to finish the night, voodoo child was cool, but too much Quin and not enough Buddy. Overall, I wish Buddy played longer. He is who I paid to see. If I knew most of the night was going to be other acts, I would not have bought gold seat tickets. I just wish Buddy played longer.
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! one of the best shows I have ever been to. I was in Blues Heaven!!!!! Good seats, great crowd of people, EXCELLENT music, WONDERFUL guitar. Couldn't ask for anything more.
Wonderful event, was great to see Quinn Sullivan with Buddy Guy. Buddy proved why he's a legend in the blues world.
The show was great not a replay of a CD. Spontaneous and reactive to the crowd. Very Kool.
Buddy ripped up the stage! He was on fire from the second he walked out until the show was over. Quinn Sullivan (10 year old guitarist) was absolutely amazing.
The show was great. Buddy Guy is a great showman who got the crowd involved and made for a great night. Quinn Sullivan is incredible for his age. The seats were great and so was the waitstaff. Fun night all around.
Buddy was amazing! He had the crowd into it, just an amazing show. The only bummer was that the casino had tables set up. would have been much better if there was open floor.
Now that's the blues!! Buddy's performance will be in my mind for the rest of my days. He's the real deal! And his voice..............
Buddy was great but he only play a few songs! He was promoting Quin Sullivan, a 10 year old brillant blues guitar player. Quin played more songs than Buddy, I know Buddy is 72 years old but I didn't buy tickets to hear a 10 year old furture super star. I wanterd to hear Buddy and all the great music he has done during his careeer.
