If you’re in Chicago this weekend you’re in luck. There’s a proverbial buffet of great acts to see all around the city. Here are a few which are especially worth mentioning:
Thursday:
Ulrich Schnauss @ the Empty Bottle
Friday:
Samuel L Session, Sasha @ Vision
Thomas Fehlmann @ Kinetic Playground
Afrika Bambaataa @ Zentra
Ulrich Schnauss @ Beat Kitchen (all ages)
Saturday:
Dan Bell @ Tini Martini (!!!)
Telefon Tel Aviv @ Sonotheque
Deerhunter & No Age @ Empty Bottle
I’ve never been to Chicago, but is Tini Martini as, um, classy as it sounds? Ahem…
think i’m going to see ulrich schnauss / manual tonight with caitlin + adler. are you going?
Mark loved last night’s show so much that it’s entirely possible.
And yes, Tini Martini is kind of a shady place. As shocked as I was to see Dan Bell performing in Chicago with little or no promotion or warning, I was doubly so to see the choice of venue. Whether or not I brave that element is TBA.
