It's crunch-y time. Another musically nourishing hour plus for your ears to digest. There's much more here than a first or second helping can satisfy. So, go on and rock past your fill, as we serve up another delicious plate full of original Chicago area and Illinois metal, punk, alternative and progressive rock and power pop.
Tacos and Punk make for the perfect combo at the eleventh Punk Rock Tacos in Villa Park this Friday. As part of the main course line up, Affluent Bums, whose zany antics in the dead letter section of your local post office may have you throwing up your devil's horn hands in celebration and throwing up your lunch. I talk with singer and guitarist Dirty Jim about their first time at the event.
A long shot obscure Chicago Melodic hard rock band gets a lucky opportunity to headline a show 43 years after the only Rock Radio anthem rocked Chicago album rock stations. I have the story of the mostly forgotten Gambler's return to the stage, Memorial Day Weekend at Arcada Theatre in St. Charles.
Turning a guest keyboard touring gig with Ministry into his own Industrial headlining band, Pound of Flesh, Darrell James got the chance to rock the legendary now extinct Double Door. He visited The Kat 105.5 air studio ten years ago this week. A rock back to that.
Along with that, you, not your stomach, is craving a massive stuffing of original local music morsels served piping rocking hot by:
