A Southern gal, I arrived in Chicago on somewhat of a whim in 2003 and was charmed instantly.

  • A.V. Club Chicago asks Jeff Tweedy to react to comments about him on the Internet.
  • Big Rock Candy Mountain goes all weak in the knees over Chicago band Cococoma and their luscious pink vinyl record.
  • We sat down with Alex Perkolup of prog rock band Cheer-Accident. They play tonight at Reggie's.
  • The Deli Chicago has the line (and a video) from a DA reunion on Chic-a-Go Go.
  • More in video is on Fake Shore Drive with local hip-hop artists Kidz in the Hall on Mark Bazer's "The Interview Show" which also begs the question: Why isn't there any hip-hop at The Hideout? Or any, really?
  • Sharon Van Etten hits the Double Door Saturday night.
  • Jim DeRogatis has the line on a fledgling band called Ideamen hitting the Beat Kitchen later this month with their newly minted album.
  • A look back at last Friday's Riot Fest shows by Butthole Surfers and The Dead Milkmen and Murder City Devils.
  • And hey, Riot Fest got a birthday cake from Bleeding Heart Bakery. That's sweet.
  • Live Music Blog has the line straight from God on Phish. Phew!
  • The Chicago Public Library announced the winners of its Sound Off contest and announce a concert on 10/22.
  • Loud Loop Press has it that Pelican will play an in-store show at Reckless later in the month, but more importantly, they'll debut a new "Pelican Burger" at Kuma's. Congrats, fellas! You've arrived.
  • We reviewed the Jonathan Coulton show at Park West last weekend.
  • A special Halloween benefit concert for Scotland Yard Gospel Choir is on deck at Subterranean. And the Hideout also offered up a slot on Nov. 12th for another benefit show featuring The 1900s and Brighton MA.
