Yes, though I am in St. Louis for this weekend, I am keeping track of the jazz and blues music going on in the Chicago area.  Yes, you’re welcome.  It’s supposed to be gorgeous weather in the Windy City this weekend.  That means it’s still great weather to get out and see some great live music at one of these clubs.  A special thanks, as always, goes out to radio station WDCB from DuPage County for the information you see below.
