Incoming

I’d call it a bargain. Great Moments In Vinyl, a collective of musicians that performs entire classic albums at venues around the Chicago area, will bring the The Who’s Live At Leeds and Who’s Next records to life at Martyrs’ this Friday night. Scott Tipping, Kevin Campbell, Alton Smith, and William Lindsey Cochran are the performers for this gig, with others likely to join in the fun. Admission is $15; the music starts at 9:00 p.m.

This Friday is Big Blast Records night at the Blue Island Beer Company at 13357 Olde Western Avenue in Blue Island. Phil Angotti, The Bishop’s Daredevil Stunt Club, and the Mark Watson Band will be rocking out. The music starts at 8:00 p.m.

The 9th Annual West Town Art Walk takes place this Friday and Saturday on Chicago Avenue between Milwaukee Avenue and Western Avenue; and Ashland Avenue between Chicago Avenue and Division Street. The postcard I picked up promises live art making; live performances; shopping specials; food and drink specials, and raffle prizes.

City Lit Theater Company’s stage production of one of the most popular Sherlock Holmes novels—The Hound Of The Baskervilles—opens this Friday night, September 27 and runs through November 10. City Lit Theater is located at 1020 W. Bryn Mawr in Chicago.

And I’ll bet he still wishes he had a rocket launcher. Bruce Cockburn will be at The Old Town School Of Folk Music this Friday and Saturday.
