I suppose the holiday weekend makes for a slow concert week. The most exciting stuff is happening over at the Taste of Chicago, really. On Saturday, I’ll be heading to a super-secret location for a teeny-tiny show by Rocky Votolato, who is doing a series of living room concerts over the summer.  There are only a handful of tickets still available (7, at the time I’m writing this post), so if you’re interested, you should act fast. He was fantastic when I saw him at Schubas, so I’m super excited to see him in a much smaller setting.
