The Scene in East Village














935 N. Damen:
This place has changed names at least 4 times since I've been in this hood, but the owner has kept it cool every rip. The confines have alwys housed some of Chicago's best DJs, artists and musicians. The owner Roy is a profound sculptor with an eye for business and a mind for everything else. It is currently in it's longest running incarnation of a long running metamorphasis; Sweet Cakes. I hope it sticks around. It is home to brilliant artist Chuck Walker. Most of the artist's are of a high calibur. I'm sure it spawned other great talents and it will continue to shelter and develop more talent. The group shows incredible.
