Well, this is what many people consider to be the official start of the summer season. It is officially Memorial Day Weekend. That, at the very least, means it is time for you to kick back, dust off the barbecue grill, and maybe open the pool. You should, at least, get a […]

Well, Mother Nature has pulled a nice prank on everyone around here. 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 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 […]

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, […]
