Lawyers Rock for the Illinois Bar Foundation on March 16

The Illinois Bar Foundation will hold its "Lawyers Rock" fundraiser on Thursday, March 16 at Bottom Lounge, 1375 W. Lake Street. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.; the show starts at 6:00 p.m.

This year's performers are:

• ICY BEE,
• The Motions (making their Lawyers Rock debut), and
• The Thornes.

Pete Hoste of Leahy Hoste Alkaraki will emcee.

Limited edition unisex t-shirts (with a wholly new design, according to event promoters) are available as well. The cost is $25 -- and those who want the shirt to impress their neighbors but can't tear themselves away from their desks on a weeknight can make arrangements with jreeves@illinoisbarfoundation.org. Neither one of us will tell.

For those who wish to attend live and in person, general admission tickets are $50 apiece ($75 with the t-shirt -- select the 'GA with merch' option). General admission includes food and two beverage tickets. VIP tickets are $100 each ($125 with a t-shirt) and include unlimited beverages. Tickets are available at this link.
