- Drink specials: TBA

- Outdoor patio with bar and waiter service
- Volley ball court
- Moretti's can hold approx. 800 Pearl Jam fans, so no worries about being over-crowded
- Parking
Sunday: You can park on the street anywhere near Jackson and there aren't any meters to worry about. There is also a very large back parking lot of the Teamsters Building which we would suggest you park in.
Monday: You can park on the street anywhere, though parking will be harder to find on a week day. In addition to the back Teamsters Bldg. parking lot, there is a pay-parking garage directly across the street from Moretti's that will cost $4 if you get your ticket validated at the bar. However, the garage closes its cash registers 11:30-11:45 PM. If your car is not out of the lot by then, it will get locked in and you are out of luck until the AM. - Shuttle Buses:
There will be multiple shuttles to bring you to the United Center before the show and return you to Moretti's after the show. The Shuttles are free! - Walking Map
The United Center is also approx 3 blocks for those who want to walk. We suggest partnering up or staying in a group, as it's not the safest area. - Public Transportation (El)

Recapture the fun of the Drive-In movie with Chicago's magnificent skyline as your backdrop every Tuesday at sunset from July 14-August 25.
The Green City Market offers locally grown produce, meats and cheeses, milk, fresh eggs, baked goods and crepes.
In a 10,000-square-foot exhibit space, Harry Potter: The Exhibition will offer fans a first-hand look inside the boy-wizard’s magical world and the opportunity to experience the amazing craftsmanship of more than 200 authentic costumes and props from the Harry Potter™ films.
For more than 80 years the Aragon has been home to the great names in music, from Frank Sinatra to Keith Richards. Take a special backstage tour to learn its rich history and about the renovations to restore its 1920s splendor, and see their still-operational, original Wurlitzer organ.
Navy Pier presents a dazzling fireworks display every Wednesday and Saturday from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend. This summer, 32 spectacular fireworks shows will light up the night over Lake Michigan, synchronized to the music of seven different soundtracks.

Roberto Clemente.
Seemed like a lot more than one hundred fans that first night in 2006. That place was packed inside and out by mid-afternoon. The second night it rained so not as many outside but inside was full.

It will probably be me and my daughter who will be 21 by then YAY!!!
Just let me know if you need me to bring anything, markers,nametags, whatever.
Awesome
Hey! Gentry, right? !! It'll be great to see you again
Your presence will be a blessing upon us all
You are in there like swimwear baby! We'll need a bunch of volunteers for Chi. It's going to get very busy :shock:
Sweet! LEt me know.. lots of raffle items = lots of $$ raised!
Yay!! It'll be great to see you & Paul, especially since we missed you at FTM! I'll check out hotel options this week
I really liked them too. Plus they had shuttle service to/from the venue also. And more importantly they loved us. We quadrupled their beer sales for the night - we sold them out!
This is my kind of love...

Definitely! Like I mentioned, the more volunteers the better.
Always, baby! Maybe we should come up with a new idea for this year for prizes or fun stuff or something?
Lani, epierce, gbrowns - got you guys added
yooper, tschav - just let me know what you'd like to donate. And thanks!
Mindi... bringing my little one too
I think it's time we got one of these bad boys;
We've been making due with whatever box or container we can find, but with big parties like this one, maybe we should look into getting a raffle ticket drum. It gives everyone a better chance of winning since it's churning all the tickets around instead of fluffing them.
Maybe we can do some preliminary donations now with gift incentive to be able to get something like this? Any one have any ideas or has one or know of a cheap one?
This is my kind of love...
♥♥♥
ew. I'll make them open for us.
Jeff, you're always one of the cool kids!
