This shouldn't have to be said, but I'm going to say it anyway. DO NOT BUY SHIRTS FROM FACEBOOK POSTS!
If you want an artist/dj/band shirt go to their website or show and buy directly from them!
These Facebook shirt sales are scams trying to get your money or they are simply trying to make a buck off of other peoples hard work.

This weekend is a very special weekend at The Midway Tavern & Dancehall!
On Saturday night it's Jack Whittle making his return to the Midway , Jack has been working the Chicago area honing his skills (even working with Liz Mandeville & the Blue Points!) He has vastly improved every time I've seen him paly and can't wait to see him Saturday Night!
Then on Sunday it's the one night return of the ELWOOD SPLINTERS BLUES BAND! The band that gave Michiana the blues for years reunites to pay homage to The Midway & Albertina!

Had down to The Midway this weekend for two great nights of blues!!!

See you October 5th!
