	Windyhop - Profile: Chicago Skyliners Big Band
		Members of the band in the early days were informed that this was not a major money making proposition, only a mission to keep Big Bands alive.
		A house band at FitzGeralds Night Club in Berwyn since 1991, The Chicago Skyliners Big Band following has grown to become one of the top Big Bands in Chicagoland.
		The Chicago Skyliners have periodic open dates available for private parties, dances, jazz concerts, festivals, and special events.

		But the Chicago Skyliners Big Band have also performed jazz arrangements of rock and R&B songs that were written in the ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s or ‘90s--songs by artists ranging from Blood, Sweat & Tears and the Ides of March to Al Jarreau, Tower of Power and James Ingram.
		So even though O'Connell has been greatly influenced by ‘30s and ‘40s jazz, his Chicago Skyliners Big Band is not an exact replica of the big bands of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Harry Truman years.
		In 1991--three years after the Chicago Skyliners' formation--O'Connell's outfit became the house band at Fitzgerald's, a nightclub in the Chicago suburb of Berwyn, IL (not far from Cicero).

	Contemporary Classics - Bill O'Connell Chicago Skyliners Big Band - Song Listings
		Formed in 1988 for the exclusive purpose of keeping the big band flame alive, this is Bill O'Connell's Chicago Skyliners Big Band's fourth album.
		While the arrangements are sufficiently similar to the originals to allow the listener to connect with the big band that made them famous, at the same time they are different enough to instill freshness in oft-played swing standards.
		Moreover, the Skyliner outfit is populated by some of the top ensemble players in Chicago and they get plenty of opportunity to shine in solo choruses.

		There is an interlocking pool of musicians that seem to staff many of the Chicago big bands, it's the same way in every city.
		But this band is a little different, Bill has put them to work a little more often, provided fine music that requires a high level of musicianship and inspired them to produce a great modern band sound.

		Representatives of the Chicago Skyliners had a verbal agreement to play their second season at the newly-renovated Pavillion at the University of Illinois at Chicago two weeks ago, but postponed a meeting to finalize the deal and left the University wondering.
		Newman said the Skyliners' first three scheduled home games, including the home opener Thursday night against Detroit, and games January 13th against Indiana and January 15th against Southern California, have been postponed and will be made up at a later date.
		Chicago opened its second season in Kansas City on December 29, tying a league record by scoring just 75 points and set a new league mark by losing by 57 points (132-75).

		Skylines are a good representation of a city’s overall power; the more prominent the skyline, the more money the city has to spend.
		Skylines also serve as a kind of fingerprint of a city, as no two skylines are alike.
		Skylines that are stretched out to a large (sometimes panoramic) view because of large cities or twin cities are called cityscapes.

		I suspect that one reason Chicago has so many teams is that for many years, they were the headquarters for the ISI and almost every rink had a viable team.
		But still it is much worse than chicago where all the teams are much closer, me might have a good amount of teams in MA but in order to get to them you have to drive long distances.
		I wish that OUR family had moved to Chicago instead of 80 miles away from Chicago when our children were young--it's my biggest regret about skating and I always tell young parents to go while their children are young if they have the chance.

		Still, you respect a career like Dallas's on a variety of levels: He hasn't sniffed a shoe deal in the last decade and hasn't received any hefty appearance fees lately, yet he's been preposterously dedicated to a game that he lives.
		The Skyliners are led by dispossessed DePaul coach Joey Meyer, and feature local half-celebrities like Comegys, Farragut Academy's Ronnie Fields and another ex-Demon, David Booth.
		Either the Skyliners have no advertising budget, or they've tragically misspent it, because they aren't quite filling the 18,000 seat Allstate Arena.

		Whether they play in the Cox Pavilion or at Valley High or linger at a third interim site until the proposed downtown arena is built, they will not under any conditions make any money and by their very existence they will be cutting into some millionaire's son's inheritance.
		The comical nature of moving an inept and failed team from Chicago to Las Vegas at midseason tops any and all previous attempts to force minor league sports on this particular community.
