There are more concerts and performances this weekend in Chicago and the suburbs. It looks to be a very nice and warm weekend, and hopefully the rest of it will be earthquake free. Still, if you are dancing in a blues or jazz club, you may not even notice it when the earth shakes. I […]
Just doing some surfing around this thing they call the World Wide Web and I found a couple of websites about jazz that I thought I would share with you. The strange thing is, well, that they are a bit strange. The first one is “Classic Jazz Stories” which is written and maintained by a guy […]
The weekend is almost upon us again. I can’t believe it myself. While it is supposed to rain this weekend, there is nothing better than seeing a great jazz or blues show this weekend in Chicago or the suburbs. Once again, a big thank you goes to radio station WDCB for the information below.

There’s nothing like listening to and finding the up and coming talents in an area of music. I remember attending concerts during my senior year at Webster University and hearing some great musicians playing their hearts out for their senior recitals and performances. You just knew these people were going to go places, and were […]
The weekend is here and, wouldn’t you know it, it is freezing and there is a chance of snow all weekend long here in the Windy City. Yes, welcome to springtime in Chicago. Still, as I have been positing all winter, there is no better time to visit your local jazz or blues club than […]
It’s hard to believe it’s Thursday already. How do the weeks go by so fast? It’s going to be Christmas again in the blink of an eye at this rate. Of course, this weekend is evidently going to be cold again around here in Chicago. So, again, it’s a good weekend to go see a […]

Oh, and if Scooter from […]
Here in Chicago the weather is finally turning from the brutal thing it was all winter into something almost pleasant. You still need a jacket, but it may almost be time to put away the one that makes you look like the Michelin Man. That means festival season will be starting soon. While the big […]
Well, I was having issues Saturday morning when I was trying to post about jazz clubs in and around the Milwaukee area. Every time I would try to paste my list of jazz clubs and then hit “publish” all of the clubs would vanish save for the first two. I was also visiting with family, […]
Milwaukee is an interesting city. It is maybe, at the most, two hours from Chicago. By today’s standards, that practically makes it a suburb of Chicago, but don’t try telling that to anyone who lives or grew up in Milwaukee. It’s a great city, really, and I have been to a few towns and cities in […]
