Tribute Nights
Back in 2009 I visited my good friend Mike McDermott in Seattle, and one of our adventures included a Townes Van Zandt tribute night gig at the Conor Byrne Pub. I had such a wonderful time hearing those songs covered by fresh new artists that in 2011 I decided to start hosting similar events in Chicago. The only venue that would dare let me try such an experiment was my darling Gallery Cabaret, and that's where we've been ever since. I'm slowly recreating the archives so until then, here's to looking ahead to many more lovely nights of making music, connections, and memories.
