CHICAGO'S WINS ANOTHER AWARD!!!

Well... Approaching Acoustic Jam #34 this Tuesday night at Chicago's,we get the news that the establishment has once again been honoured!After being bestowed with the "Friends of the Arts" award in September by the Durham Music Society,Chicago's has now claimed the Gold Medal for "Best Live Entertainment Venue" in the Reader's Choice Awards hosted by This Week Newspaper!Thank you to the owners,the staff and all of the great performers that appeared there during the last year,but most of all,thank you to all who voted.Without any of you this never could have happened. Live music is alive and well in North Oshawa and will always thrive as long as the support and appreciation continues to come from those who make the effort to attend. On the downside,however,my favourite bartender,Karen Lean,did not get enough votes to snag a prize,but that's obviously because when she made the list of nominees,the paper for some reason didn't indicate that she worked at Chicago's,so I'm sure some people just didn't recognize her name.That's OK,Karen,they also omitted the listing for the Acoustic Jam the last two weeks in their "What's On" column.Go figure.Anyway,you don't need a medal to prove that you're the best in the business.Your legion of fans,friends and admirers is well aware of that.
All right,then.....go to http://www.chicagosdiner.ca/ to see the upcoming schedule and try to make it out this Tuesday night.More players..more people..more fun..See you there!
