   What's Goin' Down In Downtown J-Town is recorded at Third City Sound in Downtown Joliet on the third floor in the same building as the hub of this scene, Chicago Street Pub.

  There's a new life beginning to grow as the food, entertainment, the arts, and passionate business owners are coming on full force. Those of us who are becoming tired of the corporate facade are banding together. It's this show's purpose to spread the word about what we do here in hopes to find more like minded individuals.

   In episode eleven, Pete Jive puts on a great show. His songs will hold ya for the duration. He's quite a character, and I always enjoy talking to him. I really think you'll enjoy the Jive Pete has to offer.

Your Hosts,

We believe that you, the listener, would love to be a part of What's Goin Down In Downtown J-Town. There has been such an enormous change here. We want to let everyone catch a glimpse of the community that all of us have become part of.

   In this episode we are excited to introduce you to Pat Otto and Bridget Cavanaugh. These two have been a member of some the bands that go this entire music scene rolling. I have had the pleasure of being in bands with the both of them. They really taught me alot about playing music that was outside of my norm. Dave and Bridget are currently in a band together called the Big Lagnaippe. Pat is in, like, thirty bands. listen and enjoy. Go hunt these folks down!

What's Goin' Down In Downtown J-Town came to be due to a massive gathering of like minded individuals. It seemed like it was hard to find good music, food, beer, and art from the normal sources. Suddenly something new had grown in our own towns from people we've known for years. Chicago Street Pub turned into the central place for alot of us to gather. We want to tell all of YOU about it because it needs to survive to bring about a real change to our daily lives. It's time to get back to putting passion into the things we do. It's time to shed light on the folks that do that day after day hoping someone will notice, and to give our business to the people building things to last. Well, no one will know if no one talks about it.

   Take a listen to us interview our local musicians from Third City Sound in Downtown Joliet above the hub, Chicago Street Pub. We record a song, an interview, and a song in one take to keep the "live" feel. We want to capture a genuine moment we these genuine people.

   In Episode 9, David Francis and I interview two very interesting individuals, Stephen and Andrew Becker. These two are in Joliet bands Modern Planets and The Selectones together. They also have some original songs together as a duo. We get to hear a couple of those songs in this episode. We also, of course, get into how they started playing music together. We had a great time recording this one. The Beckers are very entertaining. I'm sure you'll think so, too.
