Windy Citizen Drinkup

From The Windy Citizen;

This Thursday night, put away the computer and join other Windy Citizens from 7-9pm for drinks at one of the Citizen’s favorite neighborhood bars, Saluki Bar in Old Town. Don’t miss a special acoustic performance by The Clout Meisters, a folk band of city workers whose recent song “Chicago Clout,” was a hit on the WC. Noted Chicago whistle-blower and friend of the Clout Meisters, Patrick McDonough of ChicagoClout.com, will be there, too.

You voted their song up, so we’ve invited them out!

Bring a friend. Grab some beers. Put faces to the comments you read on the site all week. We’re expecting a big turnout and a fun night.
