Bryan Ferry, Andy Mackay, Phil Manzanera, and Paul Thompson will be onboard when Roxy Music launches a 50th Anniversary tour that will bring them to Chicago on September 19 for concert at the United Center. St. Vincent will be their special guest for that event. Other cities on the tour include Boston, Dallas, Austin, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia.
Tickets go on sale tomorrow for the Chicago version of here and there, which is being billed as “a touring festival curated by Courtney Barnett.” Several cities and acts are involved, and each location will feature Barnett and two or three other performers. The Chicago stop will take place at The Salt Shed on August 16, with Barnett, Alvvays, and The Beths. The Salt Shed is one of Chicago’s newest venues; located at the old Morton Salt factory location at 1357 N. Elston Avenue.

Congratulations to my nephew Joe Flamm on the first anniversary of his Croatian-Italian restaurant Rose Mary. Joe was the Season 15 winner of Top Chef on the Bravo Channel, and he’s invited some familiar names from that show to join him for a celebration at the Fulton Market area restaurant on April 20. Chefs Joe Sasto, Carrie Baird, Adrienne Cheatham, and Tyler Anderson, who’ve all gone on to great success since the competition, will be on hand. The price is $150 per person, and 20% of all tickets will be donated to Alex’s Lemonade Stand in its battle against childhood cancer. On a related note, Rose Mary is one of the 23 venues recently added to the prestigious Michelin Guide Chicago.
