Posted by: Concernedresident at 12:26PM CST on April 1, 2008

The Blizzard of Ozz brings their Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne tribute show Saturday, April 5, to The Den Again, 6501 Washington Ave. The cover charge is $8 for the show from 9:30 p.m. to close.

The Blizzard of Ozz is a well-established band featuring some of the best musicians from the Chicagoland area. The band was formed in 1996 by guitarist Kevin M. Buck, and they have played well over a thousand successful shows since. The Blizzard of Ozz plays clubs and theaters nationally, and they are available for various festivals, colleges and other events.

The band plays more than 60 songs from Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne, from giant hits like "Paranoid," "Iron Man" and "Crazy Train" to more obscure songs like "S.A.T.O," "A National Acrobat" and "Under The Sun." With such an extensive set list, the band is available to play anywhere from 15 minutes to five hours, and can range from traditional sounding classic rock to more modern sounding heavy metal. One can expect a professional concert experience that leaves the crowd in awe.

The Blizzard of Ozz has been featured on many television shows and has received much positive press from magazines and newspapers over the years. The Blizzard of Ozz was voted top three tribute artists by the Midwest Beat Magazine in their 2004 readers’ poll. The band was also nominated for the best tribute band by Suburban Nightlife in 2006.

The current lineup features Scott T. Cutler as the Ozzy, Kevin M. Buck on guitar, Chuck Hamilton on bass and Marcus Lee Cox on drums.

Posted by: Scott Anderson at 11:37AM CST on July 2, 2007
Your band can be on Center Stage.

Center Stage, the JT’s local band spotlight, is now a popular stop on our award-winning Web site. It still appears in Thursday's Out & About section in the newspaper, but it's here, too. And we want to help you make our audience your audience.

But we need something from you. (There’s always a catch, right?)

Send us a high-resolution (300 dpi or better) picture of your band, the band’s name, biographical information, name and position of each band member and name and telephone number of a contact person.

Sounds pretty standard, huh? Well, here’s the new part: ... (more)

06/05/2007: Clumsy Lovers, 8 p.m. June 7 at McAuliffe's Pub
Posted by: Scott Anderson at 11:35AM CST on July 2, 2007
The Clumsy Lovers of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, will perform at 8 p.m. Thursday, June 7, at McAuliffe’s Pub, 3700 Meachem Road. The cover charge is $12.

Cross the whimsical pop of The Barenaked Ladies, the raucous rootsiness of Great Big Sea, the lonesome alt-country of Blue Rodeo and the newgrass traditionalism of The Duhks, move the whole shooting match to Vancouver, and you’ve got The Clumsy Lovers

Collect 15 slices of their bright, bouncy ’n breezy roots-pop — a gleefully genre-busting gumbo that blends traditional bluegrass, Celtic and country with contemporary hooks, lyrics and melodies, then tosses in dashes of reggae, Afrobeat, folk-hop and surf-rock for extra flavor ­— and you’ve got their sophomore major-label set “Smart Kid.”

05/15/2007: Kashmir, 9:30 p.m. May 18 at Optyx
Posted by: Scott Anderson at 11:32AM CST on July 2, 2007
Kashmir, the Led Zeppelin show, will perform at 9:30 p.m. Friday, May 18, at Optyx, 6501 Washington Ave. The cover charge is $8.

Kashmir was formed in late 2001 after guitarist Frank Livingston decided to leave the Led Zeppelin tribute band he was in to form a show based on substance and feel rather than just “fitting the suit.”

“It’s important to look the part, but way too often tribute bands seem to forget that without the sound, the look does nothing,” said Livingston.

Kashmir seeks to re-create the mindset of a 70s Zeppelin show utilizing in a non-pretentious way authentic vintage stage gear, costumes and special effects, with attention to great detail. But most importantly, Kashmir does not take liberties on “improving” the music. ... (more)
