Everyone needs a little help these days. Who shall I vote for in the race for Governor? Should I purchase a gas or electric lawn mower? Honkers or Fat Tire or Bells? Argh.

When I need music advice I turn to Radio Free Chicago and newcomers Future Perfect Radio. These are the folks that are hitting all the shows that we wish we could make. They’ll give you previews & reviews, and interviews and sound clips, all in an independent manner.

And the best news is that RFC and FPR are throwing a party! Tonight! The stage is set at the Kinetic Playground and it all gets going at about 9 p.m. Musical artists include Skybox, late replacement All City Affairs, Coltrane Motion, DJ LA Jesus & more! See you there!?!
