There's so much going on this weekend in Chicago, that again, we can only hit the best of the last. Look for ChiIL Mama at Bucktown Arts Festival which runs 11-7 daily.
Saturday, we'll also be at Hideout from 1-4pm for the Girls Guide to Rocking-All Girl Band Party.
All ages are welcome, under 8 is free. Above 8 is $4 and adults are $7. The show is in conjunction with Girls Rock Chicago. Here are the details.
Girls Guide to Rocking show at the hideout--teen girl bands Fatal Attraction and Circular Convention from 1:15-1:30, then Jessica Hopper reads from the Girls Guide to Rocking, then Glass Bricks, spooky sister duo Ghost Bees (Nova Scotia) and Katie Stelmanis &band (from Toronto).
If the kids aren't ODed on music after 4pm, we hope to duck down to the heart of Logan Square to see our favorite punk marching band, Mucca Pazza at 5:30. We haven't made it there yet, but I've heard great things about Logan Square's new outdoor performance series, Summer Sessions on the Square.

Sunday at noon, Chicago Children's Theatre mounts a free performance of The Selfish Giant in Millennium Park. We've already seen it--Check out past ChiIL Mama post The Selfish Giant , but it's well worth checking out.
