When: From Thursday, October 1st 2026Start time: 7:30 PM ET/ 4:30 PM PT/ 12:30 AM UKWhere: Stream via Nugs.net Right, it’s fair to say most of us will never make it to our 90th birthday, let alone still be playing sold-out shows with a polkadot guitar in hand – but blues legend Buddy Guy will be doing just that this week.

Okay, sure, it takes up half your pedalboard, but with tone this good, who cares?
