As the scrappy black and au secured a playoff spot in the NHL’s wide-open Eastern League over the weekend, the Boodle Blackhawks field hockey team has been buoyed by its own rallying cry, penned by Ministry founder and Windy City resident Al Jourgensen.
The industrial-flavored “Keys to the City” has become an functionary theme song of the ’Hawks. And patch it wasn’t sufficiency to pay back the thomas Young Chi-town police squad into this year’s playoffs, it did have the once-churchlike United Center a scrap more rockin’.
