    All things Chicagoans don't do..., but I do get the draw for out of town-ers

    Always bothers me when I have friends come to town and they want to immediately go to Lou's, Uno, or Gino's; pretty much a night killer because no one feels like doing anything after.

    Some other great places to eat and drink if you are interested.
    No doubt. We have an Uno's about a half hour away and I can count on one hand how many times I've been there. It doesn't do anything for me. I can't help but love some Malnati's though. I'm always up for suggestions, so let me know what you think I should hit up! I'm a huge burger and wing fan.

    Does Peace Fest still happen?

    If you like malnatis, try pequods in Lincoln park. I've lived in Chicago my whole life and it's one of my go too spots!
    YES! Pequods is damn good! For another take on Chicago style try the Chicago Oven and Grinder Company. It's like an individual pizza bowl of deliciousness. Also right by the site of the Valentine's Day Massacre if your into the mobster thing.

    For burgers, Kuma's Corner is my favorite for excellent burgers, beer, and loud ass music. Then DMK Burger Bar is good, but always crowded. Both are close to the park. Finally Rockit Burger Bar is right across the street from Wrigley. They are good but, hit or miss on busy days, so the day of the show get there early and you'll be fine. Then just sit and people watch.

    As for wings, I think most places do them ok. Kind of hard to mess up as long as they are using fresh wingies. For.more interesting takes on them, there are a bunch of places in River North that tend to do things better as far as many classics. Hubbard Inn has some great food.
    Burger Bar is good. I had the rehearsal dinner there before my wedding. Anyone staying in South Loop, check out Burger Bar on Michigan Ave. Kick ass burgers and some of the best wings I have had. http://www.yelp.com/biz/burger-bar-chicago-south-loop-chicago-6

    I think when I walked up to Wrigley a few years back, and saw about 1,000,000 of you fine folks waiting in line, in 100 degree heat, to buy a poster......

    Is when I realized some of you people are fucking lunatics.

    Haha
    Take me piece by piece.....

    I got lucky during the rain delay and my crappy 10 club ticket put me under and overhang, and right by a merch stand so I was able to wait 15 mins in line while waiting for the show to start back up and got a few shirts, a wristband and a sweatshirt and coach jacket for retail. After the show we hung out and found the trailer selling the setlist shirts and stickers/patches.

    Had to pay a pretty penny to get the cards and any posters but felt like if you don't want anything too specific you can find what you want at the show during most times.

    2013 merch was the most insane lines I thought I would ever see. People baking the he heat for hours to get to the front of the line and most things were sold out unless you hit the time they just restocked.

    I'll check it out. I'm staying at a hotel on South Loop. Any advice on the best deep dish pizza? We are in town for 5 days so want to experience all we can. Any advice on things to do, eat, etc would be wonderful!

    If it's like Chicago 13 it will be 4 posters per night plus a mural
    So it could be 9 posters for the two days. So possibly 18 posters between the 4 shows
    Im hoping the just do two per show + murals.

    Why would you do that when there is lots of great beer around Chicago?
    Fear not, I'll be getting great beer in Chicago, too. But New Glarus is only sold in Wisconsin, so I may as well get some while I'm close by.
    If you're going to Wisconsin to get beer can you pick me up some Surly Furious? I will reimburse you for it and be forever grateful.
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.

    If you want to stay in South Loop I would go to Lou Malnatis. Theres one right on State street in South loop. If you feel like venturing off, check out Pequods in Lincoln Park. Definitely a great deep dish at either spot. If you do Pequods dont be afraid of the crust, it looks burned when it comes out but its just caramelized. Absolutely delicious. If you do Lou's in South Loop, there will likely be a wait but put your name in and you can sit next door at Jimmy Greens. Nice sports bar. They will call you when your table is ready.

    Fenway fans got lucky as the Red Sox are on a 11-game road trip. For Wrigley, I wouldn't anticipate the merch stands being open 5 days before the show. The Cubs have a 9-game home stand through 8/18. I suspect the earliest merch stands will open for Wrigley is Friday 8/19. Unless, of course, they do pop-up shops elsewhere in the city.

    Wonder if they will have a merch booth a couple days after Monday?

    IF anyone is planning on hitting Fenway 1 merch lines, my flight will be in town too late to get a poster for that show (I'm going to both nights)... if anyone is willing to grab a second poster while they're up there and let it go for cost plus a couple beers or something please email me at matt_savard@yahoo.com. I'm even willing to paypal/venmo cash on front end so you're not having to front anything. Thanks!

    I didn't bother queuing for merch at Wrigley 2013. I walked up to the line the day before, saw it wrapping around, heard how long people had been waiting and still didn't get everything they wanted, and something inside me broke. I proceeded to laugh hysterically then went to the bar :smiley:

    Through a few kind souls, artist sales and the 10c poster sale, I got most of what I wanted in the end.

    I always joke that Wrigley was the show that broke my merch whoriness. I still do my best but waiting any more than an hour seems absurd to me. I could maybe do 2 hours. But more than that and not even get everything I want? Fuck that!

    Plus I'm running out of room to put things in my apartment :lol:

    I second that... saw the light in Miami after getting crispy in FLL... never again. Sucks, but I would rather enjoy the city and fellow PJ fans..

    Didn't even use our extras tixs for merch .. would rather help a fellow member
