It’s a rainy, dreary Monday here in Chicago, soon to be followed by blistering heat. I hate summer. There’s not a whole lot going on this weekend, because Pitchfork. It appears to have crushed anything even vaguely interesting going on this weekend. Monday, July 11 Robbie Fulks; Hideout. 7 pm, $10 suggested donation King Khan […]

Looks like the music scene is still recovering from NYE celebrations, too.
I’ll be seeing Charlotte Martin on Sunday. I missed her the last time she was in town, so I’m glad to be able to finally see her live.

This is basically the worst week in the world for concerts. And by worst, I mean full of too many choices. I’ll be at the Brandi Carlile show at SPACE on Wednesday, and at DeVotchKa at Lincoln Hall on Saturday. The rest of the week is up in the air. I’ll probably be sobbing under my desk rather than making any real decisions.

The indie music world comes to a screeching halt this weekend as Pitchfork rolls into town. Three-day tickets have been sold out for ages, so try hitting up Craigslist or something to make your way in.

“This Week in Great Music” might as well just be renamed “This Week in Chicago Residencies That I Couldn’t Get Tickets To”, with series of shows by Butch Walker and Lady Gaga both selling out before I could even get around to clicking the purchase button. (Bet you never thought you’d see those two names in a […]
