After performing to a sold out crowd at The Chicago Theatre last summer, Bon Iver is returning to Chicago for a victory lap at the UIC Pavilion. The winter friendly act has been collecting praise from critics since forming in 2007. Four short years later, the group is filling arenas, with a lush sound to match.
The direction staff has been promoting this concert on our college routes, hipster route and outside of shows. We’ve been handing out fliers outside performances from M83, Architecture in Helsinki, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and more.
Bon Iver and opener Lianne La Havas will be at the UIC Pavilion on December 9. Tickets are currently available. For seats and a complete list of upcoming Jam Productions concerts, please visit jamusa.com.

Everyone’s favorite sport (yes, it is a sport and if you’ve ever been to a bout you would agree) is coming back to the UIC Pavilion in a few weeks. Chicago’s four teams will compete in an already exciting season. There’s no better way to spend the Easter weekend than at a Windy City Rollers bout. Regardless of age, race or religion, nothing stirs the spirit like watching hardcore athletes skate around a flat track.
The direction staff has been distributing WCR materials throughout the Windy City. The materials are extremely eye-catching and pleasing to both business owners and the public
The Windy City Rollers will be at the UIC Pavilion on Saturday April 23. Tickets and more information is available at windycityrollers.com.

The Windy City Rollers begin their 2011 season with a return to the UIC Pavilion. Bout 1 of the season consists of two games, Hell’s Belles vs Manic Attackers and The Fury vs Double Crossers. Though it may not seem like it, the Windy City Rollers is fun for the entire family. I’m serious. Roller derby is an awesome sport and the bouts at the UIC Pavilion are age appropriate. It’s the only sport that both a five year old and fifteen year old would enjoy equally.
The direction team has distributed Windy City Rollers materials to our hipster route, college route and bar route.
The Windy City Rollers play at the UIC Pavilion on January 15. Please visit windycityrollers.com for more information.
