The Chicago Jazz and Blues Weekend
Well, the weekend is here and once again it is snowing here in Chicago. At the same time I am still fighting off the Martian Death Flu or whatever the heck it is I have. I feel like something you might have stepped on while walking through the woods or something. So, here are some of the things going on in and around Chicago as it relates to jazz and blues music.
