Vape! The Grease Parody is a hilariously unhinged spoof of the iconic and timeless musical film Grease. The show pokes loving fun at all of the wonderful moments, sexual innuendos, outrageous characters, rivalries and secret romances from the original. The hair products may have changed, but the drama, the rivalries, and the thirst for hallway clout remain timeless. It is the musical you know and love, but dragged through a cloud of strawberry scented vapor and a TikTok filter. It's the show that you want (Ooh! Ooh! Ooh, honey!) Don't miss the Chicago premiere of this hit musical, straight from NYC. GREASE is no longer the word. Now the word is VAPE! - New York Post A must-see! A fun, irreverent night out. I couldn't stop laughing. - Hollywood Press Corps VAPE! is the one that you want! Clever, goofy and camp. - Theater Pizzazz Brash, fast and unapologetically smart. - Theaterscene.net VAPE! The Grease Parody is 85 minutes with no intermission.

Every so often a band or artist come along that change the temperature in the room. They cannot be defined by one of their songs or be put into any one genre. Their sound is universal yet unique and their emotion is transcendent. Created and led by iconic singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Jimmy Gnecco... This is OURS. OURS have expanded their reach to many parts of the world with their raw and emotional connection to music. The songs and performances are an authentic reflection of the human condition that reach their arms out and invite everyone in. On stage, the band has toured with The Cult, The Wallflowers, Powderfinger, Filter, Peter Murphy, James Hall, Ocean Colour Scene, Dredg, Circa Survive, Blue October, and Pete Yorn. As for its leader, Jimmy Gnecco, after touring with everyone from Lana Del Rey, A-Ha, Royston Langdon (Spacehog), Citizen Cope, to The Gutter Twins (Greg Dulli and Mark Lanegan), ...he has also been the live singer for the band Humanist, with whom he toured with as support act for Depeche Mode, Jane's Addiction, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. In an effort to mitigate scalping, Bottom Lounge does not certify any secondary ticket sales via third parties and is not responsible for fraudulent ticket sales on third party websites. Please be mindful of scammers. Tickets for this event will be sent on a delay (extra time is required to process and confirm all orders), but you'll always receive your tickets in time for your event.

Stars wheel overhead, bursting and dying and forming. Celestial bodies, anchored by ancient orbits, careen through space. Here on Earth, bodies need tending, hearts need mending. Sometimes it seems that the long night will never end. But stars and planets remind us: change is the only constant. Humbird's fourth full-length album, Morning When It Comes, is a promise made in the midst of a long night. With glittering hooks, big-hearted grooves, and clear-voiced melodies that cut straight to the truth, Humbird offers twelve new secular hymns that draw inspiration from the cosmos above to comfort us in our humanity down below. For lead songwriter Siri Undlin (she/her), this album first took shape as a set of poetic compasses for navigating mental and physical illness. , "rdquo" -> I found certain melodies and rhymes to be like North Stars," she notes, the songwriting process functioning as a balm and a map for reckoning with internal worlds of pain and discomfort. This process isn't new for Undlin: whether singing as a kid in school stairwells, around the kitchen table with family, conducting extensive folklore and musical research worldwide as a Watson Fellow, or touring through the US and EU/UK on the heels of her 2024 album Right On, music has always been her tool for navigating the world. , "rdquo" -> I wrote these songs when I was really sick, and it could've very easily been a really depressing album," she says. , "rdquo" -> But in the studio, it was important to all of us to find the ways these songs could harness mischief and exuberance -- not to downplay the density of the emotions, but to represent the complexity and contradictions that occur on any given day of our lives." Recording Morning When It Comes with trusted collaborators in Eau Claire, Wisconsin transformed these twelve self-soothing songs into a bigger, more universal conversation about stability, surrender, and the power of being in community.

The soundtrack from the Martin Scorsese documented film The Last Waltz was the final concert of the legendary Canadian-American rock group The Band. It was Thanksgiving day 1976 and if that wasn t special enough, a wide variety of musical genres performed on stage at one of Rocks greatest venues Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco. Mr. Scorsese was a huge fan of The Band and had already made his name with directing Mean Streets & Taxi Driver. The Band had already made their mark as the backup band for Bob Dylan in the 60s when he went electric. However, they gained international acclaim and notoriety on their own writing and recording a number of popular albums with hit songs and became famous for staging outstanding live concerts.
