The list has been strangely quiet about IPO Chicago,
which is currently
halfway through the 2004 run, probably because there's
been a dearth of
Auditeers at shows relative to the last two years.
There aren't as many
big
names on this year's roster, but the bands have
nevertheless been of
the
usually high quality that one has come to expect from
IPO.
A lot of old favorites have logged really solid sets
thus far:
Einstein's
Sister, the Tearaways, Ralph Covert & the Bad
Examples, Van Go, Leisure
McCorkle, Eugene Edwards Band, Mark Watson Band, the
Wes Hollywood
Show, the
Beatifics, Million Yen, the Webstirs, the Goldstars,
M.O.T.O., and
Cherry
Blossom Clinic, to name a few. But I've also made some
new discoveries:
The
Golden Apples, Copperpot, the Ladies and Gentlemen,
the Mumbles, Rock
E.
Rollins (best guy-I've-never-heard-of frontman I've
seen in years),
Chris
Church, and John Brodeur of the Suggestions. Also,
while I had to miss
Saturday night's extravaganze, Splitsville was
apparently so good that
David
Bash gave them a rare two encores.
I'd like to encourage anyone else who has been to one
of the IPO
Chicago
shows thus far this year to chime in with his or her
thoughts on the
festival.
----------------------------------------------------
I second this motion! I look forward to show reports
so that I can at least vicariously attend when I can't
be there in person, and was also surprised to see no
posts on IPO until this one.
(Thanks, Greg!)
