xjustinxschwierx Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Ok, this doesn't need to be stickied...that's the last thing this board needs is another one of those.... BUT.... the fact is, there's a good amount of Chicagoans on this board, I think for the sake of community, we should have a Thread about it that we can all post about happenings in the city, people needing a place to crash can inquire to us, any other random question or a place to post a flyer (or info thereof) for an upcoming show in the area... so that being said, hopefully this can alleviate the growing amount of "Attn: VC Chicago" threads that are popping up, that I'm just as guilty of creating multiples of... anyway, a few of my label bands are playing at Riot Fest this week, check out the list: http://undercomm.org/blog/?p=388 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fourfourtwo Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Bummed I can't make that blacklisted show, I've got work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vedant Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 I'm definitely going to try and make it to that Blacklisted show, but Trash Talk is the night before @ Reggie's (go to this). Regardless, I RSVP'd. Anyone go to UIC/live around here? I'm always bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4m35 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 don't feel like listening to washed up guys playing the same chords over and over again? come to the windy city soul club at the empty bottle tonight! SAT . 10/9/10 ( 10:00pm , $5 tickets available at the door buy ) Windy City Soul Club http://www.myspace.com/windycitysoulclub The WINDY CITY SOUL CLUB boasts that the "best rare soul DJs in Chicago come together to create the best party this city has ever seen," and if you're inclined to think real DJs need a box full of vinyl, you'll likely agree. Playing all original vinyl of the Northern Soul variety, Motown-style gems from labels that sometimes only had regional hits with ace dancing tunes as well as your favorite recognizable sing-along classics, if you've ever wanted to "shake a tail feather" tonight's your night to get dapper and get down. We are no longer selling advance tickets to the WCSC night, so get here early if you want to get down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
