Jazz and Blues Lounge

And the Weekend?

by balaspa on January 31st, 2008

I have to admit, this post is a bit of a cop-out.  I am running really late today, plus, I am flying off to St. Louis tomorrow for a Super Bowl weekend dealie.  Of course, Chicago is forecast to be hit with like the biggest snow storm ever in the history of the world or something, so I could end up spending Friday at O’Hare airport.  If you see me, say hello, I’ll be the guy tearing his hair and beard out and who looks like he might like jazz music.

Also, the WDCB calendar of events did not have Friday night and Saturday listed and, well, those are the big nights to get out and see some live jazz and blues.  So, I thought I would list those today.
