Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Busy Weekend-- Part 3: DeKalb Footstompers, After the Fox, PLAV and Tommy's


SUNDAY, MARCH 25

As usual, listened to Bob Stroud's Rock and Roll Roots in the morning.

We drove to After the Fox in McHenry to see one of the last performances of one of our very favorite groups, the DeKalb Footstompers, who are calling it quits after 25 years of playing together.  Three of the four members are originals.

They just announced they have just three more shows and this was one of them.

And, a unique band they were, playing lots of oldies, polkas and quite a few of their own songs which couldn't be played around children anyway.

As we figured, the place was standing room only and we sure had a great time.  I'll write down their playlist on another post.  Afterwards, thanked them for 45 years of really good times.

Afterwards, we went to the PLAV (Polish Legion of American Veterans) in McHenry and then to Tommy's in Spring grove.
