Will Long Day 5   2008-12-30 1:07 PM

In Chicago? Need to get over holiday-induced cabin fever? Know that New Year's Eve will inevitably disappoint? Head out tonight (12/30) to the Will Long Day annual anti-NYE dance party celebration at the Darkroom (2210 W Chicago Ave, Chicago - map): Adam Weg spins funk and soul and 9 PM; The Heaven Seventies play a set at 10 PM (their last performance until March 2009); and DJ Willy Joy [myspace] spins dance music starting at 11 PM. It's a 21+ show, $7 at the door.

Totally unconnected to Loud Devices -- except that our staff plan to make the scene!
