Oh Chicago

Last night was a night off in the great city of Chicago, Il. We got the invite to an "industry" party in the basement of a venue called the Double Door. We didn't really know what to expect, as far as who would be there or what would be going down, but we knew there would be free beer and food, so if anything this would be our meal ticket for the night. We were all pretty exhausted from driving the day before, and not sleeping much, so we all agreed that it would be an early night. The party started at 7 and we arrived on the dot with empty stomachs. I'm not sure what "industry" this was a party for, but I met a gentleman who works in video, and a guy who told us he was arrested back in the 80's for purchasing 50 hits of acid from an undercover cop. They were serving Goose Island's winter seasonal on the house, and 7 dollar shots of watered down whisky. After 4 or 5 brews and a shot of Beam we headed across the street to a club who was hosting "the greatest indie dance party in the country". This was according to our buddy Mike we met who works for Century Media records. Being an industry 'insider' he was able to get us to the front of the line at the bar and free shots of whisky. We left after finishing a double fist of complementary PBR cans, and headed back to Wills sisters place for the night. Somewhere along the way, we bought a $28 pizza, and I blacked out. Gotta love free booze.
