The Polkaholics! ... Catch them at the Dankhaus on New Years Eve!

I will be in Chicago for New Years Eve and there are plenty of things to do. My best bet is to catch the Polkaholics at Dankhaus. Their high speed collision of punk and polka are not to be missed. They do for polka what the Real McKenzies have done for Scotland the Brave... I caught on to them a couple of years ago with their tune "Who Stole the Kishka". A traditional polka tune done up speedcore style. The manage to love the punk and love the polka at the same time. They make fun of themselves, but the music isn't taken lightly. Doors open at 8pm and the cover is like 5 bucks or something. What the world needs is more polka punks singing songs about giant lizards stomping their way through the Windy City. They are a real Chicago treat. Like deep dish pizza, they may not be good for you, but the are TASTY!

Become the Media

Don't listen to the one-sided corporate-owned media. They are not in the business of finding the truth. They are only concerned about making money for themselves and their stock holders. If they do report the truth, it is only because it suits their business plan. A happy accident...
Become the media! Blog it, film it, record it...
You still have credibility... They don't.
