If any of you are in , or a relatively short drive from , Chicago , THE FLESHTONES will be playing a criminally unpublicized barn burner of a show at Beat Kitchen (It's not even on the club's Face Book , much less in print ads or , God forbid , flyers.....). They have'nt played Chicagoland in about six years , and not in Chicago proper since.....probably 2004. I first saw them in 1984 , and they've never failed. If you've seen 'em , you know. If you have'nt , it's not too late for your baptism by fire. Rock 'n'Roll is doing it's goddamndest to prove it'd dead in The Windy City, but , it's always alive when The Fleshtones take the stage.
The Fleshtones , This Saturday , March 3 , Support - The Jollys. Beat Kitchen , 2100 W. Belmont.
