I’m in a band that plays a lot of blues, including Albert King, BB King, and Muddy Waters. We also play Cream, ZZ Top, and the Rolling Stones, among other bluesier rock.
Our drummer can’t commit a lot of time to practicing, so how easy is this to use to program for this type music? Does it work well in a live setting?

It works surprisingly well. You can check user videos on the forum!
Have a look at this demostration of the “Blues” songs.
and here is the “Rock” songs.
You could also follow the following suggestion from Guitar Stu…
Eddy what you can do if you want to sort of try it first you can download the Beatbuddy Manager (BBM) software from the beatbuddy main site in downloads down the bottom of the page. You will also have to download a copy of the SD Card back up and you can load this into the beatbuddy manager as your pedal. This will give you full use of the BBM. You can use the virtual pedal to play the songs like you would with the real pedal and you can upload user created songs to it and try them as well and create folders etc.
I did this before I recieved my pedal and had started creating songs before recieving the physical pedal. Synced straight away to pedal once recieved.

I also wondered how all the different styles and grooves sounded and how BB worked in general so I checked out all the Youtube clips I could find.
Then I found out that you could actually download the BB Manager and all the factory content which is like having a virtual BB.
That convinced me and I just had to get one !
It’s basically like having your own BB although in a software version.
You can have a listen to all the content with your own amps and speakers.
You can even try out 3rd part MIDI files and samples like I have done for the past week.
And I haven’t even got my BB yet ! -How cool is that !
Just go here:

And here is how to use it (NOTE ! -This is an older version of the BB Manager):
Here is a really cool “Stop” feature by the BB:
