For blues fans bored with those touristy North Side destinations, here’s a chance to stroll down to the South Side. Lee’s Unleaded Blues, just off 75th Street and South Chicago Avenue, dishes the real deal Saturday with a blues barbecue from 3 to 8:30 p.m. The featured performers may not be names everyone will instantly recognize – Johnny Laws, Little Al, Little Scottie and Charlie Love – but Lee’s has a well-deserved reputation for presenting some of the best unsung blues artists in the city. At 10 p.m., Johnny Drummer and his house band kick things into high gear – and if it’s a typical evening, the person sitting next to you at the bar just might be one of the many guest artists. Lee’s Unleaded Blues is at 7401 S. Chicago Ave.; 773-493-3477.
