Buddy Guy
Whirligig and I went to the House of Blues in Dallas last night to hear Buddy Guy. Moreland and Arbuckle a band from Kansas were the opening act and they belted out some of the best original blues I have heard for sometime. Aaron Moreland played from an arsenal of guitars, including a box guitar while Dustin Arbuckle sang and played the harmonica. The cigarbox guitar has a single bass string similar to a banjo but the other strings are guitar strings, so it can fill in for a bass nicely.
Buddy Guy came on stage next playing quite a few songs from his latest CD “Skin Deep”. He is a great showman and can work a crowd like no one else. His vocals were spot on and powerful and his guitar playing is as good as it ever was, maybe better.
Our seats were in the balcony and at one point in the show Buddy walked from the stage and came up into the center aisle of the balcony still playing the whole time. A miracle of wireless guitar and microphones.
A nice touch. Was the first time I had ever heard him play and I hope not the last.
