CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE CHANGED SUCH THAT CANCELLATION IS UNAVOIDABLE.
STAY HEALTHY, MY SWEET PEEPS!!!
Winter’s Icy Grip Has Broken And The Sap Is Beginning To Rise In All Our Metaphorical Maples— So Time For A Sweet Hootenanny To Celebrate The Coming Spring And Banish The Last Vestiges Of Winter Gloom.
You Know The Story:
Stann Champion’s Musical Mightiness Michael Hollywood/LaGrange’s Multifaceted Oddness
AND YOU, Sweet Human.
Either Showing Us What You Got Or Just Drinking It All In.
Poetry Standup Storytelling Music Juggling Magic Dance
It’s All Good To Us!!!
And Speaking Of Drinking It In, The Independence Tap Has A Fine Array Of Inexpensive Libations If You Wanna Get Your Drink On (Especially Since It’s REAL Close To A Certain Verdant Holiday).
Come On Down And Join The Fun!!!
ATTENTION PERFORMERS OF ALL GENRES/TYPES:
TRY SOMETHING NEW!!!
The Independence Tap is a great space and this night is perfect for working out new material and expanding horizons as an Artist/Performer.
When we host Open Stages we create an atmosphere of respect for all genres of performance where Artists can feel safe and secure. [No stylistic cliquishness OR DISRESPECT allowed!]
Our greatest joy comes from seeing someone perform for the first time or watching an Artist try out a new genre: a Musician doing Storytelling, a Storyteller doing Stand-Up, a Poet playing Music, a Stand-Up reading a poem…
The Place Where The Boundaries Meet & Overlap Is Where True Magic Happens.
And there is nothing like the feeling of opening a door into a new room in the mansion of your soul— SO COME ON DOWN & GO ON UP!!!
A promo shot of me in early 1985, when I was just starting to do standup comedy. So early in my career that I was still juggling in my act.
Friday, December 13 7:30PM Independence Tap 3932 W Irving Park Rd

Fuller’s Pub is a great venue; an old-school Chicago Saloon that’s earned the title “The Friendliest Bar In Chicago.” We’ll be doing three long sets; giving us the chance to really stretch our legs and rock the roof off the joint.
Classic Chicago Blues, 60’s Garage Rock, 1940’s Jump Blues, Hot Blues/Rock Originals, Reggae, Soul.
The Full Arsenal Will Be On Display!
And did I mention that there’s no cover and reasonably-priced beverages?
Or that it will be my 55th birthday? That’s right! I’m turning 55 on 5/5!
How can I not commemorate this with a special show?
Yeah, You KNOW where you’re gonna be!!!*
*Important Info:
Fuller’s Pub Is CASH ONLY.
Yeah, they are that Old School.
The beauty is that their drinks aren’t real expensive so you won’t have to bring bags full of currency, and you can save your Krugerrands to tip the band! 😉
