Venue spotlight: B.L.U.E.S.

In a city known the world over for its contributions to the blues, you might as well check out one blues club, am I right? And with a quality, little mock juke joint so close to campus, there is no reason for you not to check out B.L.U.E.S. on Halsted.

Though the t-shirts on the walls read awfully touristy, the blues music cranked out in the tiny venue is no rip-off. The narrow little room with never enough seating (or standing room, for that matter) has live music every night. And not just any music, we’re talking real, authentic Chicago blues. 

There is never a shortage of tourists in the crowd, but the music and atmosphere is enough to lure in any local as a regular.
