Time for another stroll down Kyle Lane...

This just in from Kyle:

I have a show this weekend in Lincoln Park at the Vida Lounge -- it's a new room we're starting.

It's at 1248 W.George St -- basically Lincoln and George -- and it's this Friday the 8th, beginning at 8pm. Would love to see all you guys. We need a good audience because TimeOut magazine is coming to review us.

I also have a pilot that is premiering at the Musicbox theatre on July 20th at 10:30pm. We pitched it to all the networks so it's kind of a big deal. Would also love to see all you guys there.
