You love to go out. We love to go out. You love to eat. We love to eat. You love to drink. Well, you get the idea. So when you're itching for the lastest Chicago nightlife has to offer, check out The Extrovert for up-to-the minute details on the scene.
In case you weren't psyched enough to see Spoon, Animal Collective, Public Enemy and lots more at this year's Pitchfork Music Fest (July 18-20 in Union Park), check out these additions: The Hold Steady, Sebadoh, Caribou, Bon Iver, Elf Power and several more. The lineup is now finally complete, and we must say that the $65 three-day ticket price is more than fair. What do you think of the lineup now?
Do you love pizza? Do you love Cheap Trick? Wicker Park pizzeria/brewpub Piece has announced that co-owner and Cheap Trick lead guitarist Rick Nielsen will deliver pies from Piece Out to your door—if the price is right. Interested fans can bid in an eBay auction (launch date TBD), and proceeds will benefit Children’s Memorial Hospital. So it’s a win-win situation: Rick arrives in a limo with piping hot pizza, and you get to have a party all in the name of charity. Stay tuned for more details.
If you’re a West Town resident looking for a new local, listen up: The guys behind Five Star Bar, and Empire Liquors and Victory Liquors, are teaming up to open a laid-back corner tavern this summer. Think beer, pool and good tunes on the jukebox.
On a related note, Bar DeVille co-owner Matt Eisler (of the Empire/Victory Liquors bars) and partners have sold Elm Street Liquors to new owners. Though the new crew is keeping the Elm Street name, the Near North Side spot no longer has anything to do with Empire and Victory Liquors.
