Description of CHIRP Record Fair and Other Delights

Date: April 18-19, 2009

Cost: $7 ($5 with postcard/any ad); $25 pre-admission Saturday 8-10 a.m.

Organizer: Chicago Independent Radio Project

What to expect: Plumber's Hall will be jam-packed with rare vinyl, CDs, DVDs, posters, crafts and independent publications.

Why to go: Chicago labels with booths include Touch and Go Records, Minty Fresh and Drag City, but that's just the tip of the musical iceberg. There will also be live entertainment from the likes of Scotland Yard Gospel Choir (4 p.m. Saturday) and DJ Ben Fasman (Gutter Butter DJs), plus a whole lotta CHIRP DJs including Centerstage's own Dan Morgridge.
