RIGOR VITAE
10pm, No Cover
"With their self titled debut album Rigor Vitae has firmly established themselves as one of Chicago's most sound roots influenced bands. Drawing from their combined experience playing in Chicago outfits such as The Henhouse Prowlers (a.k.a. Sexfist), Outlaw Family Band and Old No. 8, Rigor Vitae infuses honest songwriting with a unique blend of pedal steel guitar, cello and drums."

Storytelling in the Snug with PATRICK RYAN
8pm, No Cover
"I have worked as a storyteller, writer and teacher for over three decades now.My practice has developed through the influences of family and friends in America, Ireland and Britain where I have collected stories and studied storytelling all that time...although I draw on traditional stories and storytelling content,the nature of my storytelling is conversational, informal, thoughtful, educational and, I hope, always a joy."
--PatRyanStoryteller.co.uk

"Patrick Ryan, a long time favourite, is very much a main man of the British storytelling scene"
--Sidmouth Folk Festival

There will be NO COVER CHARGE for this wonderful event, but we will "pass the hat" for Patrick that evening.
**PLEASE NOTE** Seating in the Snug is very limited. Come early to reserve your seats, have a meal in our dining room, and then retire with your drinks to the coziness of the Snug for storytelling!!
Reservations strongly recommended.
