Quiet Knight

The Quiet Knight (953 W. Belmont) was a venue that housed some of the earliest punk and proto punk shows in Chicago. One of Chicago's earliest known "punk type" shows was The Velvet Underground at the Quiet Knight in 1970. Sometime in the late 70s the Quiet Knight became Tuts, which played more of the traditional punk bands. Also at the same location (after Tuts) was The Avalon.
