Chicago

What fun we had in Chicago, our tour manager Paul's home town. We always love playing here.
Chicago has great food and we sampled alot of it. We played a lunchtime set for pizza eaters at Chicago's first certified organic restaurant, the new pizza joint "Crust". It was a benefit for the kids of Image Coop who made original silkscreened Ditty Bops/Crust shirts for the occasion.

Here's our friend Michael Altenberg of Crust:


and we had a yummy visit with Michelle and Valentine at "Bleeding Hearth Bakery" - the country's first certified organic bakery:


We also played two great nights at The Old Town School of Folk Music.
Thanks to Seedlings orchard for bringing organic peaches to sell.
Thanks to Bleeding Heart Bakery for selling pastries.
Thanks to Coop Image for making original Ditty Bops shirts for the night and

Sunday night we had a live webcast which will be archived soon...
