Thanks to Kevin for pointing this out to me...

One of my photos from the Puptown Howl-O-Ween party this weekend was picked up by Chicagoist. Check it out:

For any of you folks in Chicago who don't think that Joss Stone sucks, Chicagoist is giving away some free tickets to her May 30 show at the House of Blues.

If Carrie and I were not going to be in Costa Rica that day on a canyoning trip in Arenal, we'd totally be up for it. But for those you who won't be with us, you can enter for your chance for free tickets here:

Today's Chicagoist includes an interview with Michelle "Toots" L'Amour, of Lavender Cabaret:

ML: I’m “the ass that goes pow!” (laughs) Have you seen the move?
C: I’ve seen a couple of the shows but I don’t know if I’ve seen that move.
ML: I could pull it out right here but I won’t. You could just tell people that I did.
C: I have journalistic ethics, I don’t think I can lie.
FV: I thought that WAS journalistic ethics.

I saw Lavender Cabaret perform at my friend Lou's birthday party a couple years ago. They were awesome. And hot. Awesomely hot.
