Chicago bash, anyone?

OK, I'm not thinking February for this -- but would anyone be interested in a Chicago bash? Maybe next summer?

Let's see if anyone's interested, and we can take it from there. There's tons of stuff to do for everyone from music nuts to power shoppers; it's easy to get around on public transportation; and the whole place comes alive when we thaw out. It's centrally located for Midwesterners (that is, equally inconvenient for everybody), and flights are relatively cheap because Chicago's a major airline hub.

Attractions: the Art Institute of Chicago, Ravinia music festival, jazz and blues clubs, hanging out or power-walking along the lakefront, more museums, Michigan Avenue stores that will wring out your wallet, and did I mention pizza? (Plus the cheezborger-cheezborger-cheezborger joint that John Belushi made famous.)

Interested? Suggestions?

Wasn't this combined with the Bandstock planned for June 25, 2005 in Sterling Heights, Michigan? There's a thread w/more info. about it on here.

Boy am I behind! Can't imagine how I missed this one! I didn't realize there were so many of us up her in Chi-town (or close to it). I always here about Texas.

I'll have to check out the other thread as I would love to finally meet all y'all (but I am originally from Texas)!

Marie is right -- since Bandstock in Michigan will be held in June, I for one suggested dropping the Chicago summer bash. I'm sure Chi-town will be well represented in Michigan!

I would definitely attend since I live in Chicago. We would have a wonderful time as Chicago is a great town for having fun.
