    Staff thinks they're doing customers a favor. I thought we were what made a joint worth opening. Is Buddy content to pay for his clubhouse w/personal wealth, just to be a big shot? Seems that way.

    Mr. Guy’s personal reputation as the crowned king of Chicago’s electric blues scene and his 50+ years in the music business have made Buddy truly a legend himself.
