Sweet Home Chicago

At the Blackhawks rally, I was reminded of all the cool street musicians we have in Chicago! I was walking down Washington to the parade route and saw a saxophonist playing Here Come The Hawks. I love seeing them get so into it! The street musicians know so many different songs and stand out there in the burning heat and chilling winters just to play for people.

It made me think of an awesome YouTube video I just saw that Chicago Street Musicians released earlier this month. It was recorded back in August of 2009. Back then, who would have known that one of the street musicians (Crystal Bowersox) would end up being the first runner up in American Idol!


If you haven't seen the video, here it is!
