Replacement for the 'Bowl is found

Well...that was quick. The Reader's Bob Mehr reports that former Fireside Bowl bookers, MP Shows, has already found a new venue to put on shows, The Logan Square Auditorium. For the past year or so, the Empty Bottle has been putting on occasional acts there, but MP Shows is planning to turn it into a full-time music venue. It sounds like the "Empty Bottle presents..." shows at the auditorium might be numbered, but this latest announcement will not affect previously booked Bottle events...like the RJD2 show on Sept. 24th that you don't want to miss.
