Congrats to Jeff!

From Rolling Stone Magazine.
Jeff is the owner of the Creepy Crawl and a good guy--even if he tends to be exceptionally late anytime we go out!

Venues: While exploring the Loop, catch a show at Blueberry Hill, which consumes an entire city block and contains two venues: the Elvis Room, where hilarious karaoke action occurs four nights a week, and the Duck Room, which on Fridays hosts a grand hip-hop party called the Science. Area DJs, breakers and freestylers throw down and the whole shebang is broadcast live on community station KDHX. Frederick's Music Lounge is an integral part of the city's alt-country scene. The South City venue's specialty drink is a mix of whiskey and chicken broth called Cock Soup. Cicero's, meanwhile, used to be an alt-country standby; nowadays, the club sticks mostly to booking jam bands. Impervious to change, however, is punk venue the Creepy Crawl. It books up to ten bands a night for a crowd anxious to mosh to tunes by the likes of Motion City Soundtrack. For those anxious to sit down, there's the Pageant, a 1,500-capacity, balconied theater that welcomes acts like Elvis Costello.

  • When I come to visit, can we go?

  • Totally! It is so NOT our scene, we HAVE to go! Jeff would keep an eye out for us, although my experience has always been the the goth and punk crowds aren't nearly as scary as they would like people to believe. :)
