This Saturday 6/23/07 The Locals will attempt 2 different shows at 2 different venues within 2 hours. Can they do it? Come find out….

First The Locals will play the annual Montrose Art Fair. The fair is in the beer garden of the Montrose Saloon (2933 W. Montrose), featuring music by the bands below and art from local Chicago artists. Beer, Sun, Music, Art, what more could you want?

Catch The Locals at 6pm at the Montrose, then jump in your car and follow them over to Chicago Pride Fest. The Locals will go on at 7:30pm.

Chicago Pride Fest – 7:30 pm to 8:30pm

Corner of Halsted & Grace

The Bud Light Stage

Up For a challenge?  One massive day of music?

Here is what you should do….

1. Go to Chicago Pridefest at Noon and check out one of our favorite bands, Dropmore Scarlet (www.dropmorescarlet.com). They are on the Bud Light stage from Noon to 1:30pm.

2. Get in your car after their set and come by the Montrose Saloon for a full day of music and art, starting at 2pm, featuring The Locals at 6pm.

3. After the Montrose get in a cab (lets face it, your drunk by now), and high tail it back to Pride Fest to hear the Locals do a completely different set of music (okay, maybe not COMPLETELY different, but your drunk, what do you know?) from 7:30pm to 8:30pm.

If you make it to all 3 shows, come see one of the Locals after our set at Pridefest and we will give you a free Locals T-shirt, CD and buy you a beer for being the crazy, drunk music fan that you are!

We hope to see you somewhere this weekend!
