This is in the Rosemont Entertainment District. It is relatively new so it doesn't have the filthy feel of Wells Street. It was a really good time with decent food and non watered down drinks. There was an opening act/emcee who looked like Harry, except he was funny. The acts joked about being stuck in the suburbs. Good times and I'd definitely recommend it.

On another note, I rescind all previous support for that District. It has matured into a clownshow of underaged suburbanites getting dressed in what they think an adult wears for a night out on the town and getting shitfaced. Even the Hofbrauhaus seemed different.

I'll go back to Zanies for a show. I don't think I'll be going back for anything else.

Nope.

I think they have an 8 story garage. All the idiots circle the lot on the 2nd or 3rd floor and can't find a spot. If you go up to the 5th or 6th, it's practically empty.

Good Dolphin is spot on about the people that visit this place. I went there for the first time a couple weeks ago, and was not very impressed. Also, Hofbrauhaus fucking blows.

Well then it all makes perfect sense.

You have some good times at MB, but are keeping them to yourself.

Great talk!

I don't feel the need any longer to pick up a sword and shield every single time I have a strong opinion that differs from other people's.

I've mellowed.

You will eventually, also.

Or don't. Go on getting angry at everyone and trying to take passive-aggressive potshots and try to assert your internet dominance over others on the board. Belittle the opinions that are different than yours, and critique everyone's personality as the opportunities arise. Everyone likes an alpha. You're doing great.

It's an impressive development. Only driven by but props to Rosemont for taking property next door to an interstate and making it popular.

1. I feel I have taken direct and confrontational shots at your loser friends. I am very happy to call them both assholes to their faces and thus the passive aggressive tag can be removed.
2. "INTERNET DOMINANCE" Catchy! Might use it!
3. Difference of Opinions over the past 24 hours alone with Kirkwood, Curious, Hawg Ass...even America....like and appreciate all of them. If you cant see the difference between being an asshole and having a different opinion you need to relax a little.
4. Different pesonalities are what make this place. Ike, Someguy, Dr. ken, Good Dolphin, Nas, Spmack...would never get that mix anywhere else...i welcome and promote it.
5.Thank you for the compliment

Love

Your Alpha

It's not some ignorant hipster-fuckhead gathering place, so I understand why some on the board would find it "not fun" but SomeGuy had some kicks there.

I can have fun almost anywhere.

I recall liking one of the beers at Hofbrauhaus. Don't remember what it was though. The food and the schtick sucked though.

If that's how you feel about the Rosemont Entertaiment District, you might want to stay away from the area surrounding Clark and Addison in Chicago from April-September.

Oh my God, yes. We went there a earlier in the evening when there weren't a lot of people. Took 25 minutes for our food to arrive. We ordered boiled sausage, so they came in these giant, water filled corning-ware pots. The fucking moron carrying it dropped it all over the restaurant. I got hit with shards of the corning-ware. Took another 15 minutes to get the food delivered out again. No apologies, no discount. After waiting all that time, the sausage tasted terrible.
