CHIRP: Chicago Independent Radio Project

Posted by Shawn C. on August 20, 2008 around 5pm

It’s a busy Friday night coming up for CHIRP, and we hope to run into you at a couple great parties!

First, from 5:30-10PM, it’s the 4th Annual Printers’ Ball, this year at the MCA. CHIRP’s own Dr. Drase will spin for part of the evening, while you have the chance to hobnob with writers from some of Chicago’s best publications, from VenusZine to MAKE to Stop Smiling, and over 100 literary organizations. Pick up free copies of a huge array of publications, and grab a CHIRP button or sticker while you’re at it.

And from 7-midnight, another great publication, GOOD Magazine comes to town to throw a party for subscribers, current and future, at Salvage One, 1840 W. Hubbard. Entertainment courtesy of Flosstradamus, Hollywood Holt, and Wily Joy, plus interactive fun like t-shirt making, book trading, and CHIRP –uh– raffling-off-of-tickets-to-great-upcoming-shows. Stop by and say hi! This event is $20, which gets you a subscription to GOOD, free drinks all night long, and invitations to future GOOD events.
