Tommorow Never Knows Fest
It seems as though that Chicago has been getting tons of love on the music front. Last year, they had four music festivals. Vice, Pitchfork, Lollapalooza, and Touch and Go. What other way to start the year with another music festival. The festival starts today and ends Friday.
Here are the deets:
Now it its third year, Schubas¹ annual mini-winter-indie-fest, Tomorrow Never Knows, returns in 2007 to its usual Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend, but with an extended line-up. While this January timeframe may seem odd for a festival, it turns out that many music fans start getting cabin fever around this time and, moreover, they are looking for a shot of quality rock shows, which can sometimes take a hiatus over the holiday and winter months. All three TNKŒ05 shows sold out, and in 2006, the fest branched out to include one more night and more national talent. TNK¹06 bands included Magnolia Electric Co., Tapes Œn Tapes, The Spinto Band, Chin Up Chin UP, and Pit Er Pat.
Tomorrow Never Knows 2007 begins on Wednesday, January 10 and features the Schubas¹ DJs Upstairs series each night, plus family shows on January 13th and 14th. TNK¹07 runs through Sunday, January 14.
Tickets for the daily four band bills and DJs Upstairs are available at schubas.com for $15 per show or $50 for a five show pass and free festival poster. Family show tickets are $8 and also available at schubas.com.
