Buddy Guy at the Bridgewater Hall – Wow!
Wow, what a concert that was. He is truly amazing, and so energetic! I definetly recommend that anyone who hasn’t goes to see him.
A few times he was out in the crowd, sitting next to people and playing his guitar, as if he was friends with them, just chatting away.
Perhaps the best bit was when he ended up right up the top of the hall, after playing all the way up the several flights of stairs. Of course, he got a huge cheer when he made it!
There was one rather annoying guy that decided he wanted to argue with him about a comment he made on Muddy Waters, but Buddy Guy was exceptionally calm about it, and said “You obviously know more than me – teach me”. The whole audience broke out in laughter as we all realised what a prick this person really was.
Anyway, a fantastic concert, one of the best live musicians I have ever seen by far, and looking good for his age! Also has a fantastic voice, as well as his exceptional guitar skills. He is also a great comedian, a really funny guy and a great storyteller!
Chicken Boosh over at last.fm wrote a great review on the show, it can be found here:
Someone has kindly uploaded a video of “It Feels Like Rain”, one of the best songs of the night:
