I have not been in that place, but have played down the street at DOCKS.

I will try to make this.

Nice to hear live music being offered again.

Good luck, Dan!

That's the truth, Frank.
We booked April 30, June 26, and Aug 20th. I was starting to feel our summer would be all the small dives in Wisconsin. IL bars seem to plan on moving ahead.

_________________

Honestly, I hope bars/restaurants continue their outdoor thing during the warm weather. Even if its just weekends. It gives them more seating, and gives people who are "afraid" (crazy) a chance to feel safe while dining/drinking out. Bands playing in beer gardens, patios, and parking lots could/should be a big help in that regard.

_________________

Thanks Frank, realizing now we need another hour of material...but we've played with each other enough and have enough overlapping influences it'll come together. BigW, hope you can make it and share out where you all are playing as I too miss seeing other bands. Actually hitting the venue a few weeks before the gig to see another friend's group.

I like it to but in the city they are going to have to license all that stuff with more scrutiny. Restaurant owners have taken liberties with the public way

Because the City has literally given them no other option.

MANY public ways around Wrigley are at least partially blocked nearly 100 times a year (in a regular year) and few complain.

take a walk down Randolph. There are tents and crap everywhere.

Again, MANY of these places don't have another option other than to close. So, tent it up and deal with things in the streets, or let the restaurants open at or near capacity.

And at times people dining in the tents are treated to glimpses of rats running through.

We're still on but the time is now 8--11ish. I will be hitting this place up this Saturday to see the steel guitar band Crazyheart. It is led by the father of our guitarist and they're awfully good...yeah it is Wauconda but it'll be fun. May even buy drinks for bored members.

Hope it went well for you, Dan

Usual first gig things, but a friendly place and we were tipped well by the patrons. Definitely hope they have us back.

Can you post a setlist? Curious what you guys played and was out of town but might like to try to catch a show down the line.

I'm embarrassed to say that I am not familiar with most of your songs but know of a majority of the artists. I think it is great that you guys can read the room and shift gears on songs played.

I wanted to make this, but I'm stuck in the middle of some drama with my first-born. Interesting set list, and I mean that as a positive.

Keep us posted, as I would like to make it out eventually to see your band.

Looks like Even Flow in Geneva on 7/9 is the next one for sure. We are splitting the bill with our guitar and bassists other band (JBG).

Link to our Youtube page...

Our fliers for next show have included a QR Code that links to our Facebook and YouTube pages...slowly but surely getting there.

I watched some of the clips. You guys sound great.....was that a real Leslie cabinet I saw?
Also a lot of switching from matched / traditional grip. Good stuff.

We had our show at DOCK's on April 30th. It was a very good night. The garage door on the side was open so needless to say there was a bit more freedom on display than I was expecting.

Good luck on the next show....that's a bit too far out there for me, but I've had good experiences playing out in Woodstock. Live bands there seem to be well received by the locals.
