WaxTrax! Returns!

Sun June 15 at 11:00 AM, Metro Chicago
3730 North Clark Street, Chicago, IL, USA (Map & Directions)

I'm also kicking around the idea of an all-nighter: Neo 'til 5, Clarke's for breakfast, a stop at the Alley, then Metro. Anyone else interested in ADVENTURE?

I am interested in adventure.

I too am intrigued by this adventure plan. I will certainly be there at some point.

I love adventure, but this is the weekend of Father's Day, so I might be in Denver.

I was just cleaning/reorganizing last weekend and found a box of old singles; first one I picked up I flashed right back to the 'finding' experience in a import bin @ Wax Trax. Oh, the feels.

But my memories of Wax Trax are from when they were new in town so would be more of an early-morninger than an all-nighter.

I am with you, readery. I will certainly be along for part of the adventure--I just don't know about the overnight part of the adventure.

I do plan to dredge up some of my less-dignified early-90's apparel, however. Pity June is too warm for the head-to-toe nonbreathable fabrics.

I'm definitely going to be in Chicago for the Wax Trax event. Tentatively planning on hitting Neo for their Friday the 13th event thing, but might do Saturday as well / instead, depending on how we feel after the Second City show lets out.

Turns out I have football Saturday morning so unless I can nap on someone's couch at some point in the day the all-nighter is looking a little less likely.

But! What do we think about brunch at Clarke's beforehand? I could start another meetup thread and knock NYC out of first place...

I think this is a great idea.

I came back to see what the plan is. Now I'm confused.

I'm punting on the separate thread because I'm tired and cranky. Clarke's at 10am tomorrow. Wax Trax! at elevenish.

I'm going to take a nap right now, then head to the Frog at 10pm. We'll see if I'm up for a trip to Neo after that.

Cancel that. No Frog for me. See you tomorrow.

Just got back from the bike ride to Michigan thing and had also promised my sister in law I'd do Bluesfest with her tomorrow. Somehow it escaped me that this was also THIS weekend.
Out

I'd do Clarke's....

Rather, will do Clarke's, since it sounds like it's on.

OMW. Table for five?

We're outside!

I'm still like 30 minutes out, but am trying to move with a quickness...

Running rather late. Please don't hesitate to order without me.
