I play blues in whatever key they make me play it in. For Jazz, it is
usually C (C min), G (Gmin), F (Fmin) and Bb (Bb min). For the conventions
I play in E, A D and every once in a while on a gig in Eb - all major and
minor. I also go through the Aebersold "Blues in All Keys". I know I have
played major and minor in all 12 keys at one time in my life.
In the end, you need to feel comfortable enough with the blues
progressions - both major and minor - to be able to play whatever they ask.
Some people feel more inspired by a new key. Frankly, I would be more
inspired by a new car ;-).

Subject: [Harp-L] blues on chromatic - in all keys!
Are there players who play blues
on one chromatic - in several (all?) keys?
