The Horseshoe is a small community bar in Chicago. Lou Shields was opening there, so I went for a quick hop into Chicago to listen to him. Well, so so quick, meaning I did run into some unexpected traffic, so I didn't get to see the beginning of the opening.
This evening the lineup, starting with top bill . . .
The lighting was very difficult to shoot in, given my no use of flash. Once again I have realized I need to know my camera better, because I can adjust out some of the imbalance at the camera.
This is also the first time I have listened to Lou all amped up. The sound is still Lou, but on steroids. Pretty cool change if I do say.
Now, photos in the reverse billing order . . .

The set ran for about an hour. Between performers I took a look around and found an interesting light display of bottles in the back.
Jonathan Monti and Band
Between acts I shot some more photos inside The Horseshoe . . .
The last artist of the night . . .
David Prusina
Now, I must say, David has a great vocal for this type of music. I found myself not shooting photos just to listen to him.
In all it was a relaxing evening going out to listen to Lou, and the other artists. Would I do it again . . . yes . . . and they serve food!
