Introducing the Best Blues Player Around

About Me


You've finally found it - the home of the best blues player around. That's right, me, Buddy! Currently I work at WallyMart, but one day I will rule the music world!

Check out my band, Buddy and Hopkins, every Tuesday night. We play open mic down at Maximum Blues. Do you think the best bands play on the weekends? Hell, no. Everyone goes out to the bars on the weekends anyway, so bar owners don't need great bands to play to bring in crowds. However, no one goes to the bar on a Tuesday night, except those locals who only have bartenders as friends. That's why they hire me and my boy Hopkins... to bring in the crowds. Well, not exactly hire, we play for a complimentary beer and appetizer, but you know what I mean. You can learn all this and more if you follow the adventures of Buddy and Hopkins each week!
