Lil' Buck to bash self for birthday

by Dege Legg

One of Lafayette's blues guitar greats celebrates his birthday this weekend at the Blue Moon.

The "gentle giant" of the guitar returns to the Blue Moon Saloon to play his birthday bash. Ain't nobody can do it like Lil'Buck. And no one ever has. In a world where many blues masters have been unjustly relegated to the dustbin of oblivion while television friendly, pretenders to the throne are rewarded with cash and contracts it might do the soul good to pay tribute to one of the living masters. Lil'Buck plays his Birthday Bash at the Blue Moon on Jan. 14.
