Have you ever wondered the sound whales make while they hump? A certain Chicago musician claims he knows and that it’s one of his musical influences. I have to say I’ve never heard that one before!

ON THE RUN…TO METRO

June 23rd, 2009

FROM MetroChicago’s Blog:

Sunday, we hosted Emergenza’s Battle of the Bands. Some folks were wondering who the lucky band to move onto the national finals in New York is. Well, fun part is we’ve mentioned them before in this blog. The winner is none other than On The Run. Looks like that BBQ idea paid off. Congrats boys. You can check out their myspace below.

Local Chicago rock reggae band, On The Run, is offering a little more sustenance to their fans than a performance at the June 21st Emergenza Chicago finals. Day of the show, the guys are throwing a free barbeque Sunday Funday party including transportation to Metro for the show that night. Guess that means for the small price of $20, you get fun, food, a ride to the show, and a concert featuring 14 bands competing for a chance to move on to the National Emergenza finals in New York. We’re not trying to play favorites, but you have to admit that’s a pretty good idea.

Get your tickets to the BBQ here or tickets for just the show here.

On The Run Brings A Powerful Display To Chicago’s Elbo Room On January 9, 2009

On The Run plays many shows a year, and as one journalist put it, they “might just be one of the hardest-working group of guys in the business.” (Illinois Radio Network)
