Great show at reggie's. The new song (the first one you played) was great. Also enjoyed that stirring Temptations cover. It continues to be a mystery on par with Agatha Christie, why you guys don't sell out every gig. But I got to believe it will happen for you sooner or later.regards
Come out and celebrate Luis & Karl’s B-day party @ Elbo Room this Friday. Also, LG will be playing the South-side Summer Rock Fest this Saturday! Here are the details:
The Chicago Music Commission has posted a survey form on their site and will be presenting all comments received by 5pm on Friday, May 23, to Mayor Daley and the City Council.
Update: Alderman Schulter to review music community’s concerns
"Email from the Communications Director for Alderman Schulter:
Alderman Schulter and staff will be conducting an internal meeting next week with representatives from the Department of Business Affairs and Licensing and Corporation Council to review what the next steps will be for reviewing the concerns brought to the Alderman’s attention by the music community about the Mayor’s Promoters Ordinance. Alderman Schulter shares many of these concerns and will be able to provide more information after this meeting."
Musicians, actors, artists, and those who love culture, be afraid. Chicago's trying to pass an ordinance that will basically shut down ALL venues smaller than 500+ seating. Anyone promoting entertainment will be required to get a promoter's license and liability insurance, which the venues already have.
This doesn't just affect Chicago acts. Anyone looking to perform in the third largest market will have to get this license. Where will you play? Where will you perform? Where will you experience entertainment in any form?
Chicago Acoustic Underground and I have set up an online petition. The city council is voting on this Wednesday, so visit now and leave a comment to sign this petition.
You guys were awesome. We initially went to see The Loft and were worried we wouldn't like the other bands, were we ever wrong. Bought one CD there and the other from Amazon. You have a group of fans that will show whenever you decided to come south again. Thanks for the add.
Hi & thanks for the add request. Nice to meet you :-) Dawn isn't able to respond personally right now but she warmly welcomes your friendship & wishes you a great week. We all love your music - it's brilliant! If you'd ever like it played on Dawn's station let us know! Take care, Love & luck always, Wall of Sound (for Dawn) www. live365. com/stations/radiowallofsound
