About

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.

    What a great show

    by Joanna on 4/17/24Flagstar at Westbury Music Fair - Westbury

    I loved this show so much. It was great fun. I love the venue in Westbury, too. Great place to see a show. Not a bad seat in the house.

    87 and still ROCKIN!

    by Joelie69 on 4/17/24Flagstar at Westbury Music Fair - Westbury

    Buddy Guy is 87 and still ROCKIN' the house. I've gone to his shows since 1967. He ages like a fine wine.

    Timeless Awesomeness

    by Get Funky on 4/17/24Flagstar at Westbury Music Fair - Westbury

    What a treasure! First, Bobby Rush was superb. His voice, humor, and harmonica all came through with stunning force. Truly astounding musician. Buddy brought it! His voice hasn't changed a bit for this listener. It's magically clear with powerful projection. It really goes beyond the explainable. Thank you to both for maintaining the quality we've come to expect (and deeply appreciate).

    Utterly fantastic show!!!!

    by mcat on 4/17/24Flagstar at Westbury Music Fair - Westbury

    Bobby Rush and Buddy Guy are simply the greatest musicians ever. Both put on an extraordinary show. Given their ages, almost 88 and 91, they are incomparable!!

    Awesome

    by kh58 on 4/12/24Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre at the Count Basie Center - Red Bank

    Buddy was awesome. I teared up a bit leaving thinking this is probably the last time I will get to see him. He's entertaining as well as being a great blues man.

    New to Blues

    by San on 4/12/24Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre at the Count Basie Center - Red Bank

    Excellent show, my first blues show. I so wish he was retiring. Great drinks and I really felt secure with the metal detectors and extra security.

    Disappointed

    by Gus on 4/12/24Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre at the Count Basie Center - Red Bank

    I've seen Buddy Guy several times before. I know he's older now, so I did not expect the same level of energy. He was still extremely good. His band is exceptional. However, his opening act, Bobby Rush, although he has skills with a long resume, (which he outlined several times), was on for way too long. Then he comes back out for the final 20 minutes with BG. By this point I had just about enough of him.

    Last Of A Dying Breed!

    by mmgpsych on 4/12/24Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre at the Count Basie Center - Red Bank

    Buddy Guy is amazing. At his age, 87 years old, to do a 90 minute set is quite something. And to boot, he hasn't lost a musical step at all. If you're a fan of traditional Blues -- think BB King, Albert King, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf et al. - - you'll enjoy the concert immensely.

    A fond farewell

    by Mike on 4/9/24The Lyric - Baltimore

    I didn't know Buddy is 87, soon to be 88. I thought he was somewhere around 81 years old. He seemed a little tired and confused at times, but fortunately he had Bobby Rush with him. Bobby helped him hold the show together and made it even more entertaining for us, as did Buddy's son. Altogether, it was great seeing Buddy for my first and maybe last time. The band backing him up was pretty good. I may be getting too old to go to live shows, since the bass was way too loud and boomy for me, but at least I could hear the keyboard player this time. By the way, the keyboard player did a journeyman's job in introducing the show and in talking Buddy off the stage at the end. Everything considered, it was great seeing Buddy live and I won't be forgetting how much fun my son-in-law and I had.
