Hey all:

Tonight, Friday, October 24, 2025, we are doing Music Bingo at:

(1 of 1) The Fogcutter located on the corner of Rte 45 and Grand Avenue at 9:30 pm with Egghead Will. Specials: TBA (847) 356-3555

The game is just like a regular game of bingo (winning by straight line, diagonal, or four corners) except in this version, your card will be full of artist names instead of “B2” or “O75”. To call the artists, we’ll be playing the chorus of a popular song and if you have the name of the artist that performed it, you mark it down. Unlike our trivia nights, “cheating” is actively encouraged. You can ask the bartender, ask your neighbor, or even use your phone to ask Siri or Shazam. It doesn’t matter to us how you find the name of the artist. Because of this game mechanic, it is encouraged to sit near other people (i.e. closer to the bar than toward the back) so you can assist each other in identifying the artist name.

We play four games of bingo. There will be prizes for the winner of each game including a bigger prize for the winner of the 4th “double MINGO” game. Each round will have a different set of 75 songs, so each night has a potential to hear 300 songs.
