#178: Chicago Blues Scene (Page 626)


June 4, 2016
After eating dinner at Arun's, we were only 5 miles or so from Halstead Ave in the South Side of Chicago, so I couldn't be this close and not hit up the Chicago Blues Scene.  We headed to Kingston Mines first.



The entrance where they collect your $15 cover charge.

Saturday night's acts were Sugar Blue and Nora Jean Bruso


Inside, it is set up with two stages. Here is the stage for Sugar Blue (on break), while Nora Jean was singing her heart our on the stage on the other side. Then when she goes on break, this stage comes alive. It's a decent size inside with a fun, festive, clean atmosphere.

And then just for fun, we checked out one more club.


But this one just from the outside.

Verdict: No. Well, at least not for someone (like me) who doesn't particularly love the Blues or hanging out in bars. But hey, if Blues and Bars are your thing, then Halstead Ave, is definitely worth a stop while in Chicago.
