Toronzo Cannon is very good. He will be a legend of Chicago Blus….just give it time.

They should call it the “Voldemort Ball”

“The Mayor That Can’t Be Named”

Maybe they should have called it:

“Chicago: Rockin’ And Hearing Music!”

Comment by Ron Burgundy Tuesday, Jul 26, 16 @ 11:51 am
I hope Toronzo Cannon is from Chicago, becasue the other bands aren’t.
