Black Beach at Gojangle1

It just got a whole lot sexier this holiday season: Go check out local garage-y types Black Beach rock out with their Christmas spirit out when they play at Gojangle1 (3407 N. Clark St., above Fiesta Cantina bar). Expect the sexiness to increase by leaps and bounds when they're joined by Sylis Assigned, Pyrite, Casket Architecture, and Mr. Russia. The whole shebang is Thursday, Dec. 21 at 9 p.m., and will only take $6 out of your pocket.
