Benevento/Russo Duo

Wicker Park Music Festival
Chicago, IL
The Duo came out and tuned up right at 6:15 p.m. Most street festivals like this usually need to be run on time. No exception; they started right at 6:30 p.m. with Becky. Between the two of them and the fact that they looked so nonchalant tuning up, the wall of sound just erupted and never really stopped that bad…
I loved the way these two guys played together. They face each other and basically shoot each other funny faces all throughout their set. I’m sure Ace can attest to a lot of this.

For this week’s podcast, we’re bringing you some STS9 from Chicago. Last April, they played one amazing night at the Vic Theater, and I was there to lap it up in all its glory. Their music truly has a profound affect on my mood, and I commend them for believing in the power that they have as musicians…
That being said, this show kicks ass! Enjoy!
Got any ideas or suggestions for the next show? Drop us a line…

One very cool Chicago band, Del Rey, is headed out West for a small tour in August. Anyone out there should check them out while they have the chance.
You might remember I featured some of their music in Jamcast #002. Yes, that podcast might suck a little bit considering it was only my second one. Whatcha gonna do?
Hopefully someone will tape one or two of these shows and get them posted on the Archive. I don’t even know if they allow taping, but I’m not sure if a whole lot of people have directly contacted the band to figure it out. Dates are after the jump…

Tonight…I’m headed to The Empty Bottle to see Parish School / Euphone / Chin Up Chin Up. Show at 10:00 p.m. Live Music Blog represent? 10:45 p.m. at the earliest.
Tomorrow…The Duo and Mofro are playing at the Wicker Park Festival, along with many others. This is going to be tight…
Anyone else got some good plans for the weekend? Comment all weekend…
The jam mail internet presale for Farm Aid began this morning at 10am. If you’re still looking for it, look no further. The password is “soymilk”. Note – the presale is for lawn tickets only!
I’m working on my timeliness…I swear.
With the Gathering of the Vibes less than two weeks away now, festival organizers have released the official schedule of which bands will play on which day of the long weekend.
And as someone who is likely not attending for no reason whatsoever, let me just say I think it looks fantastic. Click here for the schedule of events…
Ace’s Must-See Highlights
Friday: The Zen Tricksters, Leo Nocentelli & Friends, Bob Weir and Ratdog
Saturday: Jazz Mondolin Project, Keller Williams, Deep Banana Blackout and the Jerry Tribute
Sunday: Railroad Earth (my prediction, they’ll steal the show), Del McCoury Band (the real DMB), and Medeski, Martin and Wood with John Scofield.
Definitely worth the $100 ducat. Go get ‘em, everybody.
