Tuesday Funk @ Hopleaf
The chill is in the air and the holiday season is well under way, but make sure to leave room for Tuesday Funk! We are back in the upstairs lounge at Hopleaf, 5148 N. Clark St., tonight with guests Clayton Smith, Gint Aras, James Gordon, Bill Savage and Britt Julious. Eden Robins and Andrew Huff co-host. Doors open at 7pm -- NO EARLIER, we're serious. Don't ruin it for everyone else. But do get there as close to 7 as you can, because the room fills up quickly (hence no admittance before 7). The show starts at 7:30pm. Admission is free, but you must be 21 or older. RSVP on Facebook.
