Local music scene?

I know a lot of kids who go around the city for different kinds of music. I don’t think Hyde Park’s music scene is that much asides from the U of C students who perform in it, but there are some neat venues around town. There’s nothing like a Kingston Mines or a Schuba’s or what have you in Hyde Park, at least not that I know of. However, the Maroon, and the Chicago Weekly, two campus newspapers, are very much on the ball when it comes to music.

The other semi-unfortunate thing about Chicago is that a lot of concerts are 21+

We have a folklore club and an annual folk festival. It’s huge, huge, huge, massive.

We also have students who perform together in various coffee shops and venues on campus those scenes are much smaller.
