Hey all, Ill be in Chicago for Friday's show by myself so am hoping to make it out and meet some of you all. Should be a blast before and after the show!
Also, anyone else going to the Cubs game that day? I'll be there, probably pretty early in case anyone is up for a Wrigleyville drink or two.

me and a buddy are driving up from St. Louis on Thursday morning hopefully get into town early afternoon...hopefully we can make it to the fundraiser....post party at the Congress Inn!! haha...right across the street from the venue
My friend and I will be at Kasey's on Friday, as long as he gets off work in time. Wanna go on Thursday too, but I'll be with my younger brother, so it probably won't happen. We're going out afterwards as well (Friday), anyone else? Wanna get drunk with our fellow PJ brethren, maybe meet our future wives
He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share, his key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere.
My husband and I will be at Kasey's on Friday to hopefully meet a lot of you. He has family in Chicago, so we are going for a mini vacation. I don't post at all, but have been reading all of the solo reviews and I am so excited for the Friday night show. First time we will be seeing Eddie out of Florida AND solo!! See you there!!

Chelios is scheduled for the stretch on Friday, and I assume you mean Stanley's on Armitage (Eddie did a charity show there with CC in the days following Lolla).
I will be there at the pre-party. I have got a room at the Hilton and making the trip across the border to Chicago for the first time ever.
Hope to see some old and new friends there

I've heard this about Friday as well...
So I am getting into Chicago tonight from San Diego! I've got all day tomorrow before the show while my buddy works. Anyone going to Wrigley? I'll probably head over there myself if anyone would like to join. I assume i can just scalp some tickets...
any word on who we will be donating to. just wondering. CANT WAIT. I KNOW WHERE I'LL BE THIS TIME NEXT WEEK.
On Thursday, we will be raising money for the veterans in honor of Tomas Young, and on Friday the Wishlist Foundation will be the beneficiary so that we can continue to 100% support and host these fundraisers for the next tour
how early do people usually show up at the pre-party? this will be my first time doing the dorky jamily thing... ill hopefully be downtown by like 4-5:00... hope you fuckers are ready to PARTY!
We get people there before *we* even show up, so really it's whenever you feel like coming down!
I would, and plan to, park at the parking lot right next to the Congress hotel. It's directly across the street from the Auditorium and 2 blocks from the party
I've been reading these boards on and off for a long time now but I'm delurking because I really want to meet some local fans and hang out before the Thursday show. (Can't make it to anything before the show on Friday.) I hope that's cool, and I know I suck for being a total newbie.
I can't wait for these shows. It's kind of driving me crazy.
excellent - i work until 5 - and ill have to pick my buddy up from ogilvie - but hopefully ill be able to swing by for at least a drink to meet you fine people!
are you guys picking up your tickets before or after the pre-party? how long do you think the pre-party will go?
In Milwaukee the pickup window opened at 4:30. You can just walk over and back again because Kasey's is only 2-3 blocks away. The party will run until 7:00/7:30 ish

Go to the Piano Man on Clark & Grace and ask for Ticket Teddy. He'll hook you up with a fine seat at a fair price.

Nope.. you just need to show up, be friendly & approachable, introduce yourself around and have a great time!
