Elbo Room with Bobroarmen (10/2013)
This month, Rooftop Sessions decided to come out and support a local act Bobroarmen at the Elbo Room. Our expectation of the venue was very low. In the past, we remember the place sounding not so good and the lights used to suck. We were all collectively pleasantly surprised. The staff was amazing and friendly, the drinks specials were more than reasonable (shot of Jameson plus Tall Boys $3), and the venue sounded so much better than we can remember sounding in the past. Both the audio engineer and the lighting guy were really working as though they really cared about what they were doing. We were all really shocked by how much love they were putting into what they were doing. Overall we would like to give the Elbo Room BIG thumbs up! For sure we would like to recommend the Elbo Room to all that like to get out and see local acts.

dave tamkin and Mike magione at the space
Although our time is very limited, we ended up venturing of to the Space in Evanston to see Mike Mangione and the Union with Dave Tamkin . We ended up shooting couple of videos of live performance and we figured we will just let the video do the talking. We thought that both the acts as well the venue were excellent. Cool thing about the Space was that at the bar they had a mystery bucket of beer. The beer ended being good and cheep (which was a bonus to all). Overall we thought that the Space is overall an excellent place to see bands. The venue itself is very upscale and the acts that come through are of a great caliber. MORE

hanging at schubas with the bower birds
Schubas was originally built around the turn of the century as one of the Schlitz Brewery tap houses. In late 1990's, Schubas broke through the walls to the building next door and added a dining room decorated with folk art and stained glass windows called the Harmony Grill. The music room is one of the most inviting small music rooms in the city. it provides intimate environment, excellent sound, and a music-centric atmosphere music fans can appreciate. Offering a mixed bag of live music; the bands range in quality and stature, from up-and-coming local acts with strong followings to nationally known acts loyal to Schubas for help on the way up. The room is small enough to ensure fans are never far from the action. The crowds max out between 125 and 175 people, and the audience format can be extremely intimate depending on the music style and the draw. On this night Rooftop Sessions enjoyed a front row experience with the Bower Birds. Check it out.
