[PD] Fwd: Patching Circles

Well, I am not certain about any additional things like a projector,
but they do have a wall on which to project. They have had other
people do "multimedia" shows there. It ain't all that big of a place,
but for what we may need, I would think it would be perfect. It really
isn't all that far from Public Transport, so any smaller pieces of
equipment could easily be carried.

Plus, one of the other things that would be nice, is if everyone could
invite other friends to come along. The more people who may buy a beer
or two, would make it much easier to actually have this as a regular
thing. (Yeah, commercialism is a ....) It would also be nice to put
together a flyer and post it around various colleges. I wouldn't mind
putting some up at Northwestern and Loyola, they are pretty close to
where I am at.

Anyway, if any of you have heard about The Morse Theater or not, but
they are doing regular Sunday morning "classical" (for lack of a
better word) concert, which gets broadcast live on WFMT at 11am. I
think the tickets for the concert are $10, but they also have a chef
that does breakfast (he is a friend of mine, and a great chef).

So, if we could make this sort of thing open to the public, and get
"listeners", that might help to get a "free" space. I don't know what
they might charge, but I have asked the manager, just waiting on the
response.

PS, they also have a pool table, and I do like to play...
