Reed’s Local (3017 W. Belmont) hits its 10th anniversary mark on April 10. To celebrate, owners Melissa and Joel jumped in the car to talk about its relationship to the Avondale neighborhood, how the bar was launched, whether “dive bar” is a negative term, and the upcoming REED’S FEST:



4/25 (TH) - Reverse Cowboys, VInny, Cartoon Graveyard, The Basement Party

4/26 (FR) Watermelon, Everyday Specials, Headless Honchos, Of Ghosts & Dust

4/27 (S) - Flesh Panthers, Miniskirt, Olivia and the Lovers, Speed Babes

4/28 (Su) - Philip Hunger, Gavin Ellis, Chase Your Tail, The Road Soda



Reed’s Local is a classic, old school, neighborhood Chicago bar. No pretense. No bullshit. Just nice people. Stop by for a Hamms & Old Crow ($4) soon.



Car Con Carne (a Q101 podcast) is presented by Alex Ross Art. Visit Alex Ross on YouTube (@TheAlexRossArt) to keep up to date with one of the comics industry's most important and celebrated creators.
