Growing up in Chicago we were exposed to a wide variety of music genre's. You could go to a club and listen to the Blues, to Jazz, Dixie, Gospel and Rock - n- Roll. We had music venues from the local spots to the Quiet Knight and the Earl of Old Town. Styx played at our prom, we saw Muddy Waters, John Prine, and Chicago played in our backyard in a garage. Chicago was great for concerts indoors and outdoors, still is. WXRT was the radio station and Terry Hemmert the first woman DJ that we as girls, learned that we could grow up to be anything we wanted. This is just a short tribute to grown up with music in a great city and by no means covers the City of Chicago & it's music history. And the whole purpose of this blog is in the end to say - get that vile, loud mouth, mo jo nixon off of the radio and kick his ass to the curb.
