Whistler, have you seen any shows at Copernicus yet, in the last few years? Seems like they are drawing away some of the type of acts that would play at Rosemont Theatre (which is closing) or Park west (which is sold.)

Park West fucking blows. Worst venue in the city.



Who have you seen there?

It doesn't matter. It's a dump. The sound is dreadful. The layout is terrible. The bar is terrible. Everything about the place is just bad. I hope it's bulldozed to the ground.


It used to be a good venue back in the 80s. It had a nightclub type feel that was different than everywhere else. The sound system at the time was great. The last time I was there was a few years ago when I saw Ian Hunter. The place was pretty rundown.

Yeah. The CEO of my then-employer had a condo across the street. We also owned a livery service, so we would limo in from Rockford and party down.

The sound system and overall sound was great.

Morrissey at Ravinia on Saturday.
1) He actually showed and performed.
2) Knew only 5 songs from the set list. In fairness, his catalog is quite large.
3) He's 60 yrs old.....I think he sounded great.
4) How in the fuck do you leave "National Front Disco" off the set list?
5) Now does a cover of Wedding Bell Blues? :lol:

I'm glad I saw him. I don't know why I like Morrissey, but I do. He's weird, awkward...he entertains me.

Best way he was described to me years ago....
"How was the Morrissey concert?"
"Pretty good...yeah....I mean, you can only take someone crying into the microphone for so long, but it was a good show".


I was there, too. I agree with you that he sounded great.

No idea. I don't listen to much FM radio. I'd guess on 93.1 playing it at some point. Not sure they're much of a radio band, at least not in the U.S.

I've only been there once, for a spoken word thing. I can't really critique the sound, but I really don't like the layout.

Kid Rock was on Saturday. Anybody go?

Was strange to hear it ONLY advertised on AM 890.

Sadly....I had to a major project go live at work this past weekend. I knew better than to get a ticket and risk not being able to go.

Saw Wilco at the Louisville Palace last week. Good show as always. They played 8 of the 11 songs on the new album. It was a pretty rockin' (for them) concert.

Really like the opening act - Deep Sea Diver. I guess the front woman has played with Beck, The Shins, and Spoon and this is her band. I need to look into their catalog a little more.
