See You Tomorrow At The Hideout

Here we are, a day away from the sure-to-be-historic Stampfel show at The Hideout. When I first took this project on and committed myself to bringing Peter to Chicago -- a labor of love to be sure -- I could not have imagined how much interest there would be from the Chicago music community and media.

See the utterly amazing links to all of the press below. And make sure to come out in droves for the show. Let's sell out the room and show Peter some true Chicago hospitality.

Thank you.

A few interesting items....

The buzz around Peter's appearance at The Hideout on Saturday, September 18 is growing exponentially. Peter will be doing radio interviews on WLUW and WNUR at noon central on Saturday, September 11 and Sunday, September 12 respectively. Look for stories and articles about Peter running the week prior to the show in Time Out, The Reader, The Chicago Tribune, The Chicago Sun-Times, in Jim DeRogatis' blog, and, I'm sure in many other places.

Doors are at 8:30pm, The Cairo Gang plays at 9:00pm, and Peter will hit at 10:00pm. It's going to be off the rails. Plus he'll be selling copies of his (and The Holy Modal Rounders) very hard-to-find CDs, including the amazing Dook Of The Beatniks.

Earlier in the day, at 2:00pm on September 18, Peter will play a 20-minute mini-set at one of the very best art galleries in the city, Corbett vs Dempsey. Corbett vs. Dempsey is located on the third floor of the Dusty Groove Building, above Dusty Groove America, 1120 North Ashland Avenue, just south of Division Street, in Chicago's Wicker Park neighborhood.

Stay tuned.....
