Later this year, The Travel Channel will begin airing The Last Adventure, a brand new series where hosts David DiVona and Jan van der Baan III will spotlight one city per episode, picking one area band to hang out with and document the local culture, food, music and other things that make each of the showcased cities special.

We were astounded recently when they contacted us in regards to their Chicago episode, wanting to feature our band on the show!! The opportunity to have our music and live performance featured on national cable television, and to show viewers our favorite area hangouts is absolutely amazing.

So mark your calendars and get your tickets: Our set Friday, Feb 5 at beautiful Lincoln Hall (2424 N. Lincoln, Chicago) will be filmed by a crew from The Travel Channel. Show is at 10pm, it’s 18+ and we’ll be opening for both the wonderful Bishop Allen and local darlings Unicycle Loves You.

Be there, bring all your family and friends and let’s show their network everything we’ve got!

Tickets are available in advance via the Lincoln Hall website.

The episode will air later in 2010; We’ll obviously let everyone know more specifics when we know them.
