Buddy Guy's Legends Lives Up to it's Name

When you drive by Buddy Guy's blues mecca it's pretty unassuming. The building isn't in the best shape and it doesn't scream high profile. However, according to this article in the Lake County News-Sun, it has had it's fair share of high profile appearances and concerts:
