Swing Baby! I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but Swing has become a little popular in the 90’s. I don’t know when it returned exactly, but I think the movie Swingers helped a little bit. Anyway, all the bands that our grandparents liked as well as today’s bands like Cherry Popping Daddies and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy are hot as hell right now, and a lot of Chicago clubs have picked up on that. Not only can you go to some clubs and dance to this sound all night long, some places actually give free lessons too! Here are the Chicago clubs that we know of that offer a swinging time:Liquid 1997 N. Clyborn 773-528-3400 Free dance lessons every night at 7:30 (closed Mondays) Sunday is all ages night Olive 1115 N. North Branch 312-280-7997 Thursday through Saturday is Swing and Jazz Annoyance Theater 3747 N. Clark 773-929-6200 Wednesday night is Swing night Elbo Room 2871 N.
