I loved Chester's place, and Chester.
A colleague drove me from the airport so I declined Chester's offer of a ride and met him at the Musician's Quarters. I got an immediate good vibe and after getting a tour of his great apartment we continued to chat, ended up going for dinner and sharing a bottle of wine... What a great first evening in Chicago. I did have a little work to catch up early next morning but oh so worth it.
Chester was singing a couple of nights later at a local restaurant and I am very glad to have caught his show. Don't miss it if he's playing when you're in town!
