Chicago, Chicago that toddling town
Chicago, Chicago I'll show you around
I bet your bottom dollar you'll have some fun in Chicago, Chicago
the town that Billy Sunday couldn't shut down
On State Street that great street I'd just like to say
They do things you won't see on Broadway
You'll have the time, the time of your life
I saw a man who danced with his wife
In Chicago, Chicago my home town
So tomorrow I'm heading to Chicago, AKA the Windy City, AKA Chi-town for a little R & R. While there I'm planning on hitting up a few spots, including the brick and mortar store front for online record store #1 Dusty Groove and the old Chess Records building, currently being lovingly maintained by the Blues Heaven Foundation. Of course I'm not gonna leave all you out in the cold (although I'm sure I'LL be cold in Chicago), so keep your eyes open this weekend for some appropriately themed music. I'll kick it off a day early with some Sinatra. Here's hoping you're right Frank!

...after Dusty Groove, head across the street and visit the city's oldest firehouse, maybe pick up a "bomberos de ashland avenue" shirt...also 2 words for you...naked raygun!
Thanks Vince, all suggestions duly noted on my crib notes!
Wow! Have fun resting and relaxing! Sounds like you have quite the weekend staring you in the face. Happy record hunting! =] Hope you find a way to keep warm...
