By December 17th, if you are at all like us (and we pity you if you are), yer gonna be sick to death of the malls, the traffic, the office parties, the uncomfortable gatherings your S.O. drags you to, and the overall frantic-osity of the season, you'll be in need of a reprieve.
Thus, we bring you the BLOODSHOT HOLIDAY WHISKEY EXTRAVAGANZA!
It's at the Cobra Lounge in Chicago on December 17th. It features Whitey Morgan & the 78s (what better band to drink whiskey to?), Kurt of the Deadstring Brothers (perhaps you remember him wowing the crowd at our Hideout anniversary party earlier this fall) and, fresh from her near sold out Wednesday Schubas show, Lydia Loveless!
Best of all, it's FREE!!! That's right, FREE. Just reserve your spot by RSVPing HERE.
We're also hosting a Food Drive (c'mon, be generous...) to benefit the Casa Catalina Basic Human Needs Center in the Back of the Yards neighborhood.
All donaters will receive a BS goodie.
They provide a full array of services for clients in need of urgent basic human needs. Provides intake for emergency shelter, emergency financial assistance, referral, advocacy, food pantry, short-term case management and benefits screening
They serve an average of 350 to 375 households each week in the pantry. The greatest need in food items: pasta, canned fruits, vegetables and soups, peanut butter, jelly or jam, Cereal, rice and dry beans. They also prepare special bags for diabetics so sugar free items and brown rice and pasta are greatly appreciated.
Please c'mon out, have some fun, say hi, help a good cause and maybe pick up a last minute gift or two for the music dork in your life.
