When you have been around the Chicago music scene as a musician and bartender as much as Barry Brown, you tend to gain some stories throughout the years. Well, a few of those are on display in this episode of Records and Real Estate. With a focus on Jambands, Lincoln Park, and charitable giving, this chat, which took place on a porch on a 60 degree late October day, is bound to have something to which you can relate. Enjoy the ride! And let’s meet up for a pint at Alive One!

Bullet Notes:

  • Barry Brown has seen a lot of the Chicago music scene.
  • From a keyboardist in Jack Straw – a band that covered the Grateful Dead, Phish, and more to a bartender at various bara/venues to a charity organizer.
  • He is a longtime Chicagoan having lived, worked, and played mostly in Lincoln Park for 25 years.
  • Now lives in Ottawa, IL right on the Fox River.
  • Has met some famous musicians/people including Bob Weir, Vince Welnick, Roger Daltry (almost), and Bob Saget.
