For the next hour, a boot scootin' rendition of Beyonce imitating Taylor imitating Dolly. And monkeys might fly out of my butt! Seriously, cassettes (like CDs and vinyl) are making a comeback.
Chicago Punk Trio Pure Intention chose the old school hardshell tape format, even over overrated streaming, to get their new EP, Faults And Fallacies out to the masses of fans. I talk with bassist Tim (The Braun) Chavez on why they went the thin tape spun around two hubs format, as they play an undisclosed Lombard venue on April 19th. Not entirely throwback, the tape features George W. Bush sound bites. Just like Ministry in 2005.
Sacred Dawn might be mistaken for 80s and 90s Judas Priest ( no foolin') as they open for Flotsam And Jetsum (who unleashed Jason Newstead on the world before he helped Metallica go commercial and Top 40). Both acts rock an April Fool's night show at Reggie's Rock Club.
It was no laughing matter when veteran Chicago rocker Kevin Lee tried his hand at the very genre Beyonce is now milking to the bank. When a Country Music career didn't pan out, Kevin stuck to a rock combo of big hooks and chunky guitars. He and his longtime band The Kings rocked Wire in Berwyn for the first time, seven years ago this week. We rock back to it.
