In Dallas in the mid 60's my band and I would go to Ft. Worth and watch Bugs at The Cellar. I was one of the very FEW drummmers he would let sit-in with him. Good Times!
odd that you're in Palm Springs. . .that's where Bugs is from originally. He moved to Tyler back in the early sixties. . .Mouse of Mouse and the Traps gave him the nickname Bugs cuz' he was so fast on the guitar he said he was fast as Bugs Bunny.
probably one of the greatest guitar players the world will NEVER know. He used to sit in with my old band at Mother Blues (now a parkinglot/carwash) in Dallas. He's cool.
Thank you, Yes, it is Kirby Kelley that is playing with him! the 2009 winner of the King of the Blues competition!!!

@nsra1933 --yes. . .that's what I said when I mentioned Palm Springs. Like a lot of folks, he got to Texas as quickly as he could.

A Bugs fan here in SoCal...thanks for this clip. I guess I'll never got to see him perform as he's in Texas somewhere and I am near Plam Springs....
