Just booked our trip to Chicago. Anyone else planning a road trip to ChiTown?

yep!! myself and my girlfriend are going down. i've never been there so it should be a good time. i've gotta start checking out the hotels and where all the cool bars and whatever else people find of interest.
i hope the theatre isn't in a bad part of town. i'm brushing up on my martial arts moves and my high pitch scream just in case.

Not this time around but in '02 I went down to see three of the four HOB shows, and in '03 I went down to see Gord's solo show at the HOB as well. Chicago is awesome. One piece of advice: bring clothing that is one size too large for you, and be sure your belt has one more hole. I think as soon as you enter city limits you automatically gain 5 pounds!
Have a great time! :thumb:

it kind of sucks that its general admission. i was hoping for great seats and now it'll be work getting up front.

anybody check out the area hotels?? any tips would be appreciated.

I've been checking into hotels. The Riviera is located close to an area called Lincoln Park. If you want to stay close, there is a Best Western in Lincoln Park that was recommended by someone who I know in Chicago. Downtown is also fairly close. We are staying close to the airport, as we have an early flight back to TO on Sunday.

I'm heading down from Wisconsin for this show, a girl friend might get the day off from work and join me for her first Hip show :thumb: Peregrine, are you in? Get your tickets yet?
