The Mistakes continue to make headlines in recent weeks. First, Phil and Bill appeared on Columbia's college radio station. The guys did an extended interview with the host of the show "Independent Corner", which features up and coming acts from around the Chicagoland area. Then just a few weeks later, they were featured in the Hyde Park Herald newspaper for their frequent shows at Chant in Chicago (picture above). You can catch the mistakes at Chant every month. Just check this site for details.
