Nothing but the TREWTH

Notes
"Chicago doesn’t need to have a Music Office just to have a Music Office. It needs to have a Music Office to work as the liaison between the real local music businesses—record stores and recording studios as well as clubs and promoters—and city government, to look out for their interests not only in the bureaucracy, but in the brutal competition with those giant out-of-town festivals and mega-corporate promoters that Emanuel favors but which are squeezing the little guy out of business."

Jim DeRogatis on why Mayor Emanuel’s calling Chicago the “City of Festivals” doesn’t excuse not having a music office. (via wbezmusic)

The 1st vinyl I bought in Chicago. Pretty sure this is collectible by now. Everyone needs more DnB in their lives!
