You may know punk rock renaissance man Joe Mason's work from his Sightseeing column in the Chicago Reader and SteampunkChicago.com, or maybe you've seen him perform in bands like the White City Rippers, The Blue Ribbon Glee Club or Gunshop. Either way, he's a wealth of weird Chicago history borne of many years of living in our fair city. In this first issue he talks Busted at Oz, the Whitechapel Club, the Lager Beer Riot and more. Not to be missed! -LM
