Hey guys,

I'm from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
I'll be heading over to the windy city next Monday night to attend my cousin's wedding over the weekend.

Anybody here know were I should go to hear some good live music?
Are any of you guys playing in those gigs?

Buddy Guys "House of Blues downtown is a great spot.

Head over to http://www.chicagoreader.com/music/thelist/index.php. Best way to figure out what is going on during the week.

Will you be in the city or somewhere in the suburbs?

If you are into blues, I would recomend going to 2 places. both are in the 2500 N. Block of Halstead.

"B.L.U.E.S. on Halstead". Then head across the street and north a half a block to "Kingston Mines". Blues might be a bit better known, but Kingston has 2 stages of blues playing alternately.

1 block. 2 venues, 3 stages, need I say more.

Thanks for all the replies guys!

The wedding is at Millennium Park, South Michigan Ave.

Are any of you playing in gigs this week? Would be cool to see a fellow TBer in action.
