Tallahassee\u2019s Sauce Boss, Bill Wharton, brought his slide guitar and iconic hot sauce to the American Legion Friday night on behalf of the Bradfordville Blues Club.<\/p>\n

Dan \u2018Mac\u2019 MacDonald is the face of Mac Daddy Blues Production, which brought Wharton to the American Legion Post 13 at Lake Ella. That\u2019s where local fans of the blues have been going since the famous old club closed its doors. MacDonald says Wharton is helping them keep the tradition of the club alive while they search for a new home.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe unfortunate thing is that the club closed April the 1st<\/sup>,” he said. “But there are still a dedicated group of us and our fans that want to see blues music continue here in Tallahassee. We\u2019re trying our best to bring that to you.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n

WFSU asked him how important the sauce is to Wharton\u2019s act.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey call the band \u2018Extra Sauce\u2019! And I\u2019m a big fan of the hot sauce, anyway. But really, I\u2019m here about the blues,” said MacDonald. “Bill has always been a big supporter of the Bradfordville Blues Club and the BBC, and we\u2019re certainly going to show that here tonight.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n

As to the Sauce Boss, he and members of the audience cooked up a big pot of gumbo throughout the show \u2014 as usual.<\/p>\n
