"Remember the gateway drug analogy: if you start a kid on Blink-182, he or she might progress to (gasp!) the Clash, and Black Flag, and then Dead Kennedys, and then, most dangerous of all, the selected musical accomplishments of Steve Albini." from My So-Called Punk by Matt Diehl
Steve Albini's Shellac are providing a free sonic assault in the peaceful and idyllic setting of Pritzker Pavillion in Millenium Park, with the more laid-back and stylistically diverse Shearwater opening at 6:30. Look for the sign between 6 and 6:15 and be sure to RSVP for an email with the exact location as the event nears. Bring blankets, chairs, munchies and beverages-- our trio will probably pack a picnic, with the anticipation that Shellac's sound will fry any ants that try to invade. This meetup will happen unless there is more than a 50% chance of thunderstorms, so keep your radars peeled as well and follow our twitter for last minute updates.
