Twist and Shout!


Dave and Kristine are back and Thursday nights will not be the same! 

They are best known for hosting Chicago's Planet Earth 80s New Wave night over the past 15 years, but they also are into 1960's Soul, Northern Soul, Ska, British pop, Motown, 60s girl groups, etc., and they have a new gig where they will spin all this and more, starting this Thursday, June 5. Called Twist and Shout, the new night is happening at the World Famous Holiday Club, at Sheridan and Irving. Dave will be spinning, Kristine will be pouring, appropriately Mod images will be flickering, and there will be shuffling across the dancefloor. 

The Holiday Club, with its "Swinging 60s" Rat Pack decor, is the perfect venue for this night. Even better is that not only can do do the mashed potato, you can have a plate of mashed potatoes, with gravy, maybe alongside some turkey, at the Holiday Club, as well as cheese fries, nachos, massive burgers, pizzas, and food that far exceeds what you get at most bars. 

The recently departed Bo Diddley once sang, "Let the kids dance," and now on Thursdays, at the Holiday Club, they'll be able to do just that.
