Attraction | "BUDDY GUY'S LEGENDS BLUES CLUB"

Fantastic atmosphere. Get there early or you will not find sitting space, standing room only for late comers. They serve good food for those who want to go early. If someone famous is visiting town, they are known to just show up on stage and play with whoever was already scheduled and playing for that evening. Lots of parking in the area, and all taxi drivers know where it is. Hotels within 1 block, like Hilton, etc.
