- I go to the Chicago Blues Festival every year (well, at least the last 5)
- but I'm also a big Reggae fan. I read somewhere of a great club at
- something
- like 3200 N. Clark with a really long, strange name like 'The Jumping Frog
- and Pink Elephant Something-or-other'. In fact it was in a "Let's Go
- Chicago"
- type book a brit friend of mine who conned me into driving him to Chicago
- from Pennsylvania had. I always wanted to go there but only once had a
- car...
-
- DC, where I am now has a very good selection of Reggae bars, Kilimanjaro
- being at least the most famous and probably the best. I've seen Toots,
- Sugar Minot, Black Uhuru and Hugh Masakala there and always had a great
- time...
