Anyone in the Chicago area want to meet up for a tour of this legendary building?

I'm not near Chicago, LQ...

But next time you're in NYC, if I'm driving up 8th Avenue...
I'll honk the car horn if you stand outside of MSG.

ok schillid - i'm still hoping that will be in april...

Yes, I'm in.

Little Queenie! If only I'd known.....we could have planned this field trip
for Sunday 1/13......but it's probably closed on Sundays. Dang.

My wife went to Chicago yesterday (1/13) to see WICKED with her brother.
I would have traveled with her (from Milwaukee) and gone to Chess Studios...
...but instead I stayed home...got some work done...and watched the football games.

Have you done the tour yet? Might be in Chicago 1/26 or 27.
I'll keep you posted.


IORR............but I like it!

Yea, Queenie I'll go. Been by there many times, but never gone in. Hallowed ground that place.

LQ,

I'm in if at all possible

R

sounds cool

Is it still a recording studio?

cool! lots of interest...

SNC - i could do it the 26th but not the 27th...but RO may be having a party that weekend in the burbs...i hope that's ok to write here...

we can always wait until the weather is warm...i was just putting out feelers...

it's not a working studio anymore, tim...just a museum.

I'll go but can someone please give me a lift....



ROCKMAN

i'll pick you up at the airport, rockman. you can sleep on my couch that night, unless you need to get back home right away!

Aaahh cool little queenie...Couch will be fine but
I do tend to sleep-walk a little when I stay over at friends....

sounds good....I have been touched by your "feelers". warmer is better.

I went to 2120 when I was in Chicago for Crossroads but it was closed at the time. Would love a chance to get inside. Maybe if your field trip can be timed with a travel-worthy concert, you'd get some out-of-towners and also warrant a special tour - especially if the Stones don't play the US or Canada for SAL. Any idea if there is anything coming up in Chicago in April / May / June? Would also give Rockman a chance to pack, and LQ some time to train the kittens to attack sleepwalkers. (Maybe make him smear catnip on his toes when he hits the couch - that would set the little critters onto him if he gets too close.)

I will be in Chicago in May for work, I go every year and this is one thing I have always wanted to do when I am there.. and go to Wrigley Field for a game. Cubs are never playing at home when I'm out there.

I'll be in Chicago in a month.

I've never been but will definitely check it out!!

Another good "field trip" in Chicago:
[www.chicagomusicexchange.com]

Count me in!

I work two miles from there so I'd be all over that.

Hey Queenie, dahling, if this was spring or summer, I might be able to go!
Maybe another field trip or show somewhere in the area could be bubbling in the works!! How about the film premiere at an IMax in Chicago?

IORR, Chicago Branch, Field Trip

Can u take an ex-Chicagoan like wwwwwith ssssssssssssssoul ?

Imax and Chess!Let's do the premiere of Shine a Light!

I just wanna go out on a date alone in Chicago with Queenie.


plexi

Might be good timing to schedule it around the Chicago Blues Fest (weekend of June 5th). Johnny Winter & James Cotton will be playing on day 1. And Legends should be relocated and open by then. A lot of happenings to fill up a weekend!

F-ing stalker!

I love your idea, JJFlash: IMax and Chess if everyone could
wait another two plus months...

Blues Fest, another possibility.

the imax premier and blues fest sound like good candidates. are we to assume the imax premier will be on a different date than NY? 'cos i've had some ideas about going to NY then.

plexi, you can come on the field trip too, but this will be a group date!

Good idea LQ. I may chaperone him just to make sure he behaves.

"It's just some friends of mine and they're busting down the door"

well OK lq, I will take both -- a group date with all of us, then later, a private date (and I mean even without the likes of sweetcharmedlife) with u.


plexi

but tim, rockman will have to be your wingman - i'm putting him up on my couch - i can't leave him to his own devices!
