I also saw a commercial on Comedy Central promoting the Chicago shows.

Heard the radio advertisement. Still lots of seats available. Obviously more for Thursday than Friday.

I've noticed too...so glad to see it! I remember those early shows at places like Joe's Bar, Raue Theater, Chord on Blues and even House of Blues, when JB was flying under most people's radar.
The times they are a changing!

I wish I could have seen that Chord on Blues show. It's since changed names but I was in there a few months ago for dinner and I can't imagine seeing Joe play there.

I was at two different shows there, including the one where Kevin Shirley first saw Joe play live.
I stood pressed up against the center of the stage and remember thinking "I could tie Joe's shoelaces together from here"...I would have barely needed to reach.
Very cool place, very cool seeing Joe play there.

By the way: When I yesterday spoke to Toronzo Cannon, a Chicago Bluesguy at his gig in Muddy's Club, Weinheim he showed me a selfie on his handy in front of Joe (just performing on the stage) probably at his last gig there. Toronzo seems to be a fan too...
