Thanks to the miracles of Amtrak, Chicago is practically in my backyard. Maybe this will be a great chance to see a show.

I'll start making some calls and see what I can do. Can't promise much beyond trying but hopefully we can make it happen. If any of the more veterans of the area just have suggestions of some prospective clubs/venues/ hell even a moose lodge or something that would be worth calling, I'll make the calls if you can just point in the right direction.

Awe man, Reggies is where I saw Screeching Weasel a few years back. That would have been awesome. As previously stated, sadly I don't even know anyone here with a house.

Echoing Facundo: HOUSE SHOW IS FINE/PROBABLY BETTER
real venues are overrated and have stingy "drinking on stage" rules (not 21)
Nom Star/esc: Go for it man, whatever works. Time is of the essence.
Lowgain: I guess she has work responsibilities. I'm taking nearly an entire month off. I'm going to really regret this.... Who hasn't bought the comp yet? :3
also:
I heard about nigel playing above a curves or something?
I also remember seeing a tacodoomwhatever venue/house/??????? was that in chicago /??
also:
????????????????????????????
(post needed more question marks)

FYI.. Houseshow's in the midwest aren't probably like the ones where you are at.. Cops actually show up to the parties and break them up here if someone calls the cops on noise issues...
Been to plenty house parties that dont get broken up... been to quite a few house shows where cops show up... If you can .. stick to legit venues.

Hey I'd like to get down when/if I can. I live in Kalamazoo, MI (yes there is actually a Kalamazoo), which is about a 2-3 hr. drive from chi-town. I also visit chicago at least 2 or 3 times a year lately. I wouldn't be able to be a "regular", but once I save up for some gear and get my car fixed I'd love to come out and play/watch some shows with you guys. It would be great to have another excuse to visit that town more!
ill swing by and grab you on my way down from grand rapids.
im down for some chicago shows this fall!
