Klezmer in Chicago? and Yiddishkayt Los Angeles!

[Animatrixie <happibeatz...>]

...So I'm going back home to visit my mother in Chicago the week before 
Thanksgiving -
Could anyone in the area give me an idea of what kind of klezmer/Jewish 
music happenings I might be able to check out while I'm in town?  Yid 
Vicious?  Maxwell Street?  I'm looking in your directionnnnnnn!  ;)

I'll be in town from November 21 to 25.

Thanks!!!!!


P.S. Yesterday's kickoff to the Los Angeles Yiddishkayt festival was 
EXCELLENT!  Unfortunately, I missed Ms. Susan Lerner and Ms. Cindy Paley 
in the auditorium, but we participated in just about everything else! 
 What a creative and innovative idea to be able to create your own 
immigrant passport!  Yiddishkayt's creative team really transformed the 
Skirball Center into a bustling city marketplace yesterday!  Bravo!!! 
 Thank you and I can't wait to see all of the other shows coming up this 
week!
