Earl Pionke dead at 80; owned Chicago music venue Earl of Old Town
CHICAGO, April 27 () -- Earl Pionke, the owner of the landmark Chicago folk-music club Earl of Old Town, died Friday at the age of 80, a longtime friend said.Musician Bryan Bowers told the Chicago Tribune Pionke suffered from pancreatic cancer and would be remembered at a memorial concert June 23.The Earl of Old Town on Chicago's North Side was a frequent venue for singer-songwriters such as John Prine and Steve Goodman."The 'bigger than life' term doesn't do him justice,[url=http://www.govtvault.com/]gucci outelt store[/url]," said Bowers. "He was the epicenter of the whole musical scene here."The Earl of Old Town closed more than 30 years ago,[url=http://www.govtvault.com/]gucci belt men[/url], but Pionke was well remembered by Chicago-area musicians. A recent show marking his last birthday drew about two dozen musicians and went on for 6 hours,[url=http://www.myeduhelp.com/]christian louboutin booties[/url], the newspaper said.
