I've seen Buddy some 10 times and it's alway a treat. There's no one else like him out there with the combination of guitar mastery, genre mastery and showmanship. Much of the repertoire was as in previous shows, a combination of Blues classics, Buddy Guy compositions and rock blues tunes popularized by Hendrix and Eric Clapton. I've seen him play more extended guitar solos in the past but this was still classic Buddy and his approach to playing is both at once entertaining and impressive. The opening act was a just turned 14 year old guitar phenom by the name of Quinn Sullivan that Buddy had discovered and is now promoting. He brought him out towards the last part of the show and was content to let the spotlight shine on him. It's obvious that, as far as Buddy is concerned, it's all about the blues and its survival and young proponents like Quinn Sullivan are there to ensure that survival. As far as Quinn Sullivan goes, he has an impressive technical ability and there's no doubt that that will develop into something deeper. For now, however, there was definitely a contrast between the ease and conviction of Buddy's playing and stage presence and that of the young neophyte, but time and experience should remedy that, although one never knows what will happen in the future. Kudos must be given to the band, whose members have been with Buddy for years. That is one very solid sounding band and special mention should be given to Mary Sammon, the keyboard player, and Tim Austin, the drummer.
