The weekend is here and so is the month of June. I cannot believe that June is here, people. That means the year is already almost half over. How is that even possible? We have yet to have an actual spring yet here in Chicago.

Last nigh a bunch of really nasty and severe thunderstorms came through and by this morning, the general air temperature had fallen into the 30s.

The weekend has finally arrived. It is going to be a relatively nice weekend in the ol’ Windy City. While I have always said that going to a jazz or blues club is best when the weather is crap, it’s also great when the weather is nice. You can walk to many of the clubs […]
