jenbobblehead Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 the brother kite will be playing the Note on the 14th of this month, so i hope you all will go out and see them--they are terrific, and good kids too. They will be staying over in Chicago and want to know where they should shop and do. I will suggest the usual places that always come up here, like Laurie's and The Hideout, but i cannot for the life of me remember that really awesome scandinavian restaurant--is it Ann Sathers? Is that the name? they like the kitsch so tiki bars and shops are a must see, but i'm not enough of a chicago tourist to know much more than where to get good cinnamon buns and frango mint chocolates so please feel free to post. they would also like to know all the places Ira Glass hangs out, so if you know, please PM me or post here and i'll forward the info along to them. If you'd like to take them out for a meal that would be great too. thanks! jen Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 These guys need to play Ann Arbor. The Detroit show wouldn't work for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you'd like to take them out for a meal that would be great too.I doubt Ira Glass hangs out anywhere in Chicago anymore, since the show has moved to NYC. But if these guys want to know where to hang out just in general, aside from Ann Sathers, they can PM me. The best tiki bar is out by the des plaines river.

blureu Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Can someone give me the lowdown on this band? This is the second time in a week I've seen their name mentioned (which must be good, right). I checked out their website and was just looking for more input from others. Are they the real deal?

solace Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 i don't know if they're the "real deal", but their record was my #2 or #3 fave of 2006 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
