JULY 6
Dan Aykroyd and Jim Belushi to perform next month at the Old Joliet Prison in Joliet, Illinois. The proceeds will benefit the Joliet Area Historical Museum.
It will be a two-day event, August 19 and 20.
There will be a free screening of the movie "Blues Brothers" where, of course Jake was incarcerated before his release in the opening of the movie. (My second all-time favorite movie after "Animal House.")
There will also be other entertainment and food.
Dan Aykroyd was an original Blues Brother. Other Blues Brother experiences which will be offered are Maxwell Street and Bob's Country Bunker, derived from the movie. Also a religious service at the Triple Rock Baptist Church.
Also, a Bluesmobile car show.
Organizers would like attendees to dress up Blues Brothers fashion.
$60 for a two-day pass for adults, $20 for children.
The prison's historic walls were built in 1858 and it closed in 2004.
Sounds Like a Great Time. --RoadBrother
