Who is Dave Medusa? 

Dave Medusa has been knocked out of the nightclub game a few times, only to stage fierce comebacks setting the bar higher with each reincarnation. There is no one more prolific in Chicago Nightlife history then Dave Medusa. Referred to as the Godfather of Nightlife, King of the Underground and Chicagos Pop Culture Icon Dave is a cult like figure and is the poster child for constant reinvention and dedication to cutting edge nightlife. Sneaking into discos at 15 gave him his first glimpse of the debauchery that has become his signature style. After a brief stint with formal education Medusa escaped to Waikiki at 17 where he ended up living in a house of ill repute and became educated in the fine art of hustling and survival. When a friend permed his long sun bleached hair a local drag queen dubbed him Medusa. Who knew this kid with the hair of snakes would become the catalyst in evolving Chicagos nightlife, art and music scene by breaking down the social barriers that divided all the subcultures of his favorite city.

The rest, they say is history.
