Andersonville Chicago earlier today. If you look close you see six guys cleaning the front of the building. Right now I’m having a beer at Cary’s and listening to a band.

Secured a Beta Band ticket at Metro tonight. Last they came through was about 20 years ago, they pretty much invented full scale instrument switching in my book.

Just saw a Lexus commercial for a car that helps you parallel park. If you can’t do that on your own in Chicago you should be in prison.

The recent victory that Portland, Maine activists won against LiveNation is huge—but not without precedent, as it follows the Chicago Independent Venue League’s successful fight. Understanding this history is important, because there’s so much that can be learned. pitchfork.com/news/chicago...

Folks need a new plan to fight ICE. If they have 10 you have to have 100, if they have 100 get 1000 together. Tackle them, spray them, unmask them and go tell their friends and family who these un-American bastards are. Some will return to their jobs, but not all....

I love watching the kitchen at Hopleaf. It reminds me of The Bear. Oh and I also like their Belgium beer selection!

I’m outside at Wrigley Field now. At 9pm I DJ all things ROCK at Delilah’s. Will of course wear my Cub hat if they hold on and win! (Did I mention the $3 beers and whiskey?).

This is the landscaping at a house down the block. They paid about $1.7 million a couple years ago. Classy.

Those Cub playoff tickets for today are pretty cheap as playoffs go (about $60) for a seat. I'm guessing there are not many Padre fans in town and Cub fans are not bullish on the success of their team? (maybe I'll go!)
