Review: Walker Bros, the original pancake house

Hidden in the trees of a non descript Lincolnshire Corporate Center, you will find Walker Bros.

I had two chocolate crepes with strawberries, hot chocolate and three thick bacon strips for $15.16.

Each bite of the crepes had some nice semisweet chocolate. On this saturday, hot chocolate was nice but nothing special. The bacon was non-greasy crisp and very good tasting.

Review: Kodo (2/13/13 Chicago Concert)

Amazing.
The 2/13 Chicago program contained Kaden, Monochrome and Ibuki.
The 2nd half had Onidaiko, Tsukimachi, O-daiko and Yatai-bayashi.

Each song is nearly non-stop extreme drumming. The beginning and end is softer music with flutes and singing. Between each song was more soft flute and vocals so the only time for clapping is at the end of each half which is well deserved.

The first video is a 30 second sample of the soft music segments. The 2nd video shows a sample of the non-stop extreme drumming. (View this in full screen mode).

Note: The videos were taken from the first row of the upper balcony.
Also note that if you are tall or have bad knees, don't sit there. The seat had no knee room nor could you stretch out your legs. And the steep stairs had tall step riser heights.
