AUGUST 13-- The future home of the Illinois Rock and Roll Museum on Route 66 in Joliet, Illinois, was given landmark status. It is at 9 Cass Street and was originally a White store and later a Goldblatt's
It has also been several other stores during its life.
So far, no opening date for the museum has been set.
We can always use another museum on 66, especially one about rock and roll (and especially those great 1960s Chicago bands like New Colony Six, Shadows of Knight, Cryan' Shames and Buckinghams.
AUGUST 15-- The world's largest Route 66 sign at Motorheads in Springfield, Illinois, is now up. Just one more reason to check this place out. We went there just a few days after it opened. Later, we had a great time watching the St. Louis Blues win the 2019 Stanley Cup there with a whole bunch of Blues fans.
Springfield is torn between Chicago and St. Louis sports.
