I’m guessing Chicagoans you have. It’s got a few parts to it: His Chicago band calendar, his Chicago band-review blog, his Chicago (and other) beer blog, and a Pizza and Brunch blog done via Facebook.

If you don’t know, now you know.

I’ve been asked to compile a list of the best places to see music in Chicago. Please check my logic and fill in any gaps that I’ve missed. Yeah, and I guess we can consider the entire concert-going experience here. Can that can be measured regardless of music? I dunno – anyway…here goes:

Theatre: not necessarily w/ seats, but capacity at greater than 500 people?

1. Park West
2. The Vic
3. Epiphany Church
4. Logan Square Auditorium
5. Congress Theatre
6. Pritzker Pavillion

Clubs: no seats, generally less than 500 people?

1. The Empty Bottle
2. The Hideout
3. Smart Bar
4. The Bottom Lounge
5. Subterranean
6. Schubas
7. Double Door
8. The Metro
9. Reggies
10. The AVerie
11. The Green Mill
12. The Beat Kitchen
13. Abbey Pub
14. Elbo Room
15. Sonotheque

I couldn’t find a way to sign Kevin up on DS – does he need an invite?

Install µTorrent, first, then click on the dl links. Then choose to open the file with µTorrent.

The 09 SXSW Artist Showcase has over 1000 songs in 3 torrents.

The 05-08 Artist Showcase torrents are just as easy to get.

This is the newest project from The M’s guitar and vocal section – Josh Chicoine. In this time of great depression he’s found sponsorship and help to throw a full blown international festival here in Chicago – which could be just the first of many (by the look of the roster).

This is going on all weekend – Thursday through Sunday – and happening all over the city – from the Cultural Center downtown to Schubas. I plan on attending a few things. On Friday I plan to see the Richard Bellia show (rock photography spanning the past 40 years) and on Sat the Encyclopaedia Pictura event – both are at the Th!nkArt Salon.

View the full schedule to CIMMfest.

The guy who did it is one of the co-founders of Denver Tetris League (read the article about Tetris League Denver from the Denver Post here). I call it lo-fi rap. You agree?
