Chicago venue owners Katie Tuten (Hideout), Chris Bauman (Patio Theater, Avondale Music Hall), Robert Gomez (SubT, Beat Kitchen) and Cole Brice (Cole’s Bar) join me to talk about CIVL (Chicago Independent Venue League) and its efforts to keep Chicago venues alive and enable them to successfully emerge from the pandemic.

If you’ve ever set foot in a Chicago venue to see a band, have a drink, or enjoy live entertainment, please listen to this episode.
