WBEZ: Brass Band Music, May 2 CIMM "Brasslands" movie

There's a story on WBEZ (from their Worldview show) about global brass band music:
https://soundcloud.com/wbez-worldview/global-notes-brass-bands

The movie "Brasslands", about brass bands competing at the Guca festival in Serbia (including Zlatne Uste, whose music we often dance to) will be showing Friday May 2nd at 7:00pm at the Logan Theatre
as part of the Chicago International Movie and Music (CIMM) festival.

Since we won't be meeting for dancing Friday May 2 because we'll be having the Stone Soup party Sat May 3
you wouldn't even have to miss dancing to go see the movie.
