Ron,
I stayed with a friend who lives approximately 2400 north and 5700 west in a
very Polish neighborhood. We went knocking around the bars in that area and
along Diversey. We saw Melvin Taylor at Rosa's on Armitage--he was awesome!
Then we went to B.L.U.E.S. Chicago on Halsted and saw Les Getrex--also
great. Last, we went to (something) Mines also on Halsted and saw the
phenomenal Joanna Connor. Melvin Taylor was my favorite of the three. It's
been a long time since I've heard/seen a guitarist of his caliber.
We also took in the Museum of Science and Industry and poked around a little
in the Loop. We ate great Mexican and Hungarian. I gotta get to Chicago
more often!
