Windy City Soul Club has passed the two year market… that must mean millions in rare soul has now been spun for Chicago’s dancefloors! The party has held sway at Empty Bottle for a year as well, so make your way over there this Saturday, December 4 for another monster party. The WCSC boys have freebie CD mixes to give away and new tshirts to sell. Can’t say they haven’t been busy… check the video

The Soul Club boys salute our resident scorpio, Ben Pirani, and welcome Robert Wells, aka Northern Rob, for another round of the best soul 45s in Chicago. Only at the Windy City Soul Club, only at the Empty Bottle.
See you on the dancefloor this Saturday, Nov. 20 – kick it off at 10p, go till 3a, $5 at the door.
Our Way of Thinking and Mods v. Rockers gave us two sterling weekends in Chicago… lucky for us, the summer is just getting started. Our friends at Late Bar have tapped local scooter clubs and some of the scene’s finest DJs to get down every Friday – they’re calling it The Merge. Last week’s kick-off party was a great start, and we see the night growing bigger and better. Expect to hear soul and ska and boogaloo and psych and freakbeat and revival and brit pop and anything else you want to hear that the DJs have in their box. The sound is broad, and we want everyone to feel welcome.
You’re gonna want to say you were there, to tell the kiddies about this night. Let them know that The Merge was something magical… that Late Bar was your favorite place ever to get a drink and dance. Luckily, it’s open till 4am every Friday so you have plenty of time to make it happen. And Hobgoblin drink specials to wash it all down.
