Show Calendar
April 2012 – July 2014
You may know her from her parts in Dum Dum Girls, Chrystal Stilts, or The Vivian Girls – but I like her best as herself, Frankie Rose (at least I think that’s her real name). A friend at work turned me on to her and I’ve never been to Township, so I’m excited to check it out.
Opener = Dive
Friday @ Congress Theatre
Saturday + Sunday @ Humboldt Park (Division and California)
It’s a little late in the season, and in kind of a weird place but it’s cheap.
Tickets
Elvis Costello | Iggy & the Stooges| Nofx | Gogol Bordello | Alkaline Trio | Dropkick Murphys | Descendents | Offspring | Coheed and Cambria | More
Chicago’s own, JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound are playing a free show at Reckless Records in Lakeview on Record Store Day (Saturday 4/20). It’s an acoustic set, but something tells me it’s still going to get crowded in there…
I’ve seen Conor Oberst with Bright Eyes, Monsters of Folk, and as himself, but never with Desaparecidos – his rock band. They put out one awesome record called Read Music, Speak Spanish 10 years ago and then disappeared until reuniting for a small reunion tour last summer. This is their first time in Chicago since reforming.
Opener: The Tillers
Opener: Video Tape
Tim Kasher, the front man for Cursive and The Good Life, is doing a solo acoustic living room tour. Tell me this doesn’t sound awesome?
