My Pick Show for the Last Weekend in May
OK, I am just going to admit that every weekend I pick a show from the Velvet Lounge. I swear, I never intend to do this, but every time I look at the events calendar, it’s the show at that particular venue that stands out to me.
This weekend they have a show with a prominent Chicago musician named Tatsu Aoki. From the WDCB website, here are the details:

Check out his website as well. He is a bass player. You never know about bass players, but Charles Mingus was one and he was great at finding talent, so I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt. Plus, he’s from Chicago, which automatically puts him high on my list of must-sees.
