Due to some of the things Kasim Sulton mentioned on stage at the gig (such as which musicians play on some of the tracks), a review of this gig will not be posted until after 3 is released.
The venue (taken from the KasimInfo.com Blog that day):
This will be Kasim's first solo gig at this venue. However he has played his own gigs in Chicago several times over the past 13 years (since he re-started his solo career).
Kasim has mainly played at The Abbey Pub previously. His last solo performance there was on 8th December 2010. Prior to that he played there on Saturday 15th May 2010, Friday 16th October 2009, Thursday 12th March 2009,
Friday 21st March 2008,
Saturday 27th January 2007,
Saturday 16th February 2002 and
Friday 10th August 2001. Kasim usually gets his largest crowds in this city - last time there was a long queue outside!
Kasim's last solo gig in Chicago was on 20th October 2012 at Martyr's.
In recent years Kasim has played at SPACE a few times as part of Todd Rundgren's band. The most recent time was on 28th August 2013 and 29th August 2013. Prior to that it was in May 2012.
SPACE stands for Society for the Preservation of Art & Culture in Evanston. The website venue describe SPACE as "SPACE was created by musicians for musicians. Our venue was designed to offer superior comfort, elegant aesthetics, and sophisticated audio and lighting technology, all in service of great creative expression. The sound is fantastic, the sight lines are perfect, and no seat is more than 40 feet from the stage."
This venue only holds about 250 people so consequently there areonly a few General Admission tickets remaining (there is limited seating in those areas). Tickets (from this link) are $18 in advance (recommended). All the $27 seats at the tables on the floor sold out several weeks ago!
The address of the venue is SPACE, 1245 Chicago Avenue, Evanston, Illinois 60202 which is about 30 minutes north of Chicago (if there is no traffic).
Doors open tonight at 6.30pm and the gigs starts at 7.30pm. The website does not state whether there is an opening act or not.
Kasim will next play at this venue on 31st March and 1st April, again with Todd.
