How do music bloggers throw a party? With live music, of course.
That’s right! The Chicago music blog community is getting together on Saturday, December 18, at Subterranean to host Beats & Blogs: A Musical Hotspot.
The party is presented by LOUD LOOP PRESS and Betta Promotions and will feature “some of Chicago’s top bands for your listening pleasure.”
It’s good to see the solidarity (especially during the holidays) because it’s something we talked about in our conversation with Frank of Windy City Rock.
Beside sharing good music, we’re told that the purpose of the show is to “showcase Chicago’s amazing online community,” which sounds like a good reason to put on concert.
And it looks like this will be a great chance for fans and readers to hang out and talk with the creative folks and writers behind your favorite Chicago music blogs.
We’ve featured several of the blogs here on Live Fix, such as YMTE, Heavemedia, CHIRP and Loud Loop Press who helped us with our Deerhunter experiment, and Heavemedia who helped us with our books and live music exploration.
That said, we’re excited to see how the night turns out!
For the music part of the show, rock duo White Mystery and other Chicago bands will be rocking the stage and we’re told a video about the night will be coming later this week.
