Jump to: Reviews
Today's side deal pulls back the curtains for you to hear the mysterious man plucking all the strings. For $10, you get a ticket to see Robert Earl Keen live in concert at Joe's Bar on Friday, February 12, at 10 p.m. (a $30 value). While he's never had a chart-topper and he may not be a household name like Sousaphone virtuoso Disney Maytag, Keen's songs have been recorded by such legends as George Strait, Lyle Lovett, and the Highwaymen, as well as popular acts Shawn Colvin and the Dixie Chicks. Even Garth Brooks mentions Keen's music in one of his own songs.
Find out what the music-insider hype is all about while relaxing with a beer and your pals at Joe's Bar. Conveniently located near the North and Clybourn Red Line station on Weed Street, Joe's Bar is a cozy venue featuring full bars and acoustical walls that have vibrated with the sounds of such artists as OAR, Keith Urban, Run DMC, and Rick Springfield.
You must be 21 years old to redeem this Groupon.
Reviews
American Songwriter recently interviewed Robert Earl Keen for its "Legends" column. Here's what it has to say about his songwriting:
- …Keen’s latest study in spinning everyday observations into the ache for home and belonging, traced through the lonely lodger at “The Village Inn” and the technology-tangled protagonist of “Wireless in Heaven.” By the end, Keen hasn’t exactly convinced you of his capacity for couch-sitting so much as he has made an album that makes you want to sit still and listen. – Matt Fink
Metromixers and Citysearchers love Joe's Bar, giving it four stars for service and great drink prices:
- Joe's is the best Hang Out in the Chicago land area…if you're into bands... Joe's books only the most popular talent. They book all kinds of music…Be sure to get there early to avoid any lines, and give yourself enough time to have a great meal before the band starts. – stelstarz, Citysearch
- Joe's is hands down one of the greatest bars in the city. The food is good, drinks awesome, staff always prompt and courteous, and the live music scene is phenomenal! You won't be disappointed! – kristi, Metromix
