Welcome to the first of a three volume Episode 1000 anniversary episode recorded at live events held at four locations throughout the greater Chicagoland area. The next two volumes will be released over the next two days.
My original idea was to combine all the interviews and performances into one single release. As fate would have it… it’s just too much content for one single episode, so I decided to break it up and make it more digestible.
For this episode, recorded at Skeleton Key Brewery in Woodridge, Siren Records in McHenry, and Liar’s Club in Chicago, you’ll hear (and see):
An interview and performance from super cool jazz combo the Black and Blue Hearts. An interview and performance from the incredible Ike Reilly. A comedy set from Kevin Kellam. An interview and performance from the very scary Halloween band the Ooozin’ Ahhhs, and an interview with Chicago punk legends the Effigies.
In between segments, you’ll also get to enjoy messages from former podcast guests, sharing their Episode 1000 greetings. This time around, that includes Garry Meier, Marina City, Kill Scenes, 13 Monsters and Smashed Plastic.
