I'm keeping both days open on my schedule!

Let us know if there's anything we can do to help on our end.

The 30th would certainly work best for me.
23rd is doable but has a few barbs to it that may snag me...... :-/

I'm in..I'm in the Fox Lake area.
May I suggest looking for something around the O'hare field area..most major highways nearby and the airport itself..plus tons of resturants and hotels.
And for those interested,theres a Texas Guitar show in town May 16 & 17 http://www.texasguitarshows.com/NewChiMay.htm.

What part of Chi Town will this take place and when?

LMiwa · March 16, 2009, 06:49:01 PM

Olie, I hope you can go so you can collect our cut

The Dallas Cartell

I'm still waiting for confirmation, but so far it's looking like May 30th in Barrington Lakes. Bag End is hosting the event.

Don't book any flights yet! I hope to have the details all set by the end of next week.

LMiwa · March 20, 2009, 11:57:35 AM

Bag End whould be amazing hosts! They are about 30 miles / 45 minute NW of O'Hare airport.

For out of town guests, there are a lot of hotels in the Hoffman Estates / Schaumburg area just south of Barrington.

And Olie, friends from the south are ALWAYS welcome!

Cool! I played at The Onion (across the street I believe) a few years ago with Ragweed.

Well if you can do the 30th I should be able to make it. My in-laws are going to be out of town May 20th until the 27th so we would not be able to make a May 23rd date. Barrington isn't that far from St. Charles so it's a great location for me. Also it being at Bag End might give me a chance to put a face to a couple of the folks I've talked to over the years.

FYI since I will be flying I will not be bringing my basses.
