Len, you will find Buzz at Skyline Casino, Boulder Highway LV, every Wed,Thur,Fri and Sat night. He and Ross Lewis have a great 2 piece outfit. I was there 2 weeks ago. They deliver a mighty show. Ross is a great vocalist, and Buzz will blow you away with his steel playing and his guitar pickin. I went to 3 of their shows ..... Just Great

When BUZZ uses tracks for backup, he played ALL the instruments on those tracks.

I had the pleasure of listening to Buzz & Bill Stafford swap licks etc. in a garage in Las Vegas a few years back.

Buzz has the only brown zirc bar.

Thanks for that Lee. I've had a tape copy of a CD of his given to me years ago, but to see him play here was a treat. Made my day/week. As my Pal RR say's, he's as good as it gets Image

Sherman, I believe that the location is "the Fremont Street Experience"; that would be on the now foot-traffic-only Fremont street downtown Las Vegas.

I've known Buzz for about 25 years, done some gigs with him; as great as he is in this video, you should hear him live on a gig... hoo boy... this video is barely the tip of an iceberg.

And as I said before, he really is a great guy too, very laid-back and easy-going, good attitude.

If you're anywhere near Las Vegas, go hear him.

Thanks, Jim. I know the Fremont Experience and I thought that was where it was. Played the 2:00 P.M. Binion's $60 tournament every Wednesday and Thursday all of last year there. A lot better than the slots.
