so far this is my battle plan for friday, if anyone knows of any cool and quick stops I could add along the way it would be appreciated

The field museum has a Genghis Khan exhibit, you could make it a roto-matic themed trip btw the field and rotofugi.

Check out Quake Collectibles in Lincoln Square, 4628 North Lincoln Avenue

The Genghis khan exhibit is amazing. The TV movie parts are lame but to see how advanced the military was at that time is amazing.

is there a reason you want to go to the rock and roll mcdonalds? i mean, if you want mickey d's to eat, there's other, cheaper ones to go to.
but i work walking distance from the rock and roll mcd, and there are TONS of better places to go eat, that don't require you back tracking
across the river...

I try to hit rock and roll mcD's every time I hit chicago RIP Wesley Willis, also I have tons of time to burn before the museum opens

I don't think I'll be able to sqweeze the field museum in unless I only hit the khan exhibit which I don't think I could drop full price on, may have to try another day trip before it ends if the finances allow, thanks again everyone for the ideas and input

^ yeah, the museums are wonderful to visit.. But you really need at least a full day if not multiple full days to see a decent amount at the museums (and that's if you skim over the informative plaques, lol).

Anyways, I have been kind of MIA lately, especially on SB, but I am definitely planning to come out to the show this Friday.

So who all is going? and who is up for a couple drinks at delilahs afterwards?

best Chicago trip EVER! thanks for hosting such an awsome show, super cool to see everyone again, so much energy and awsomeness, can't wait to see you all in 2013 if the myans were wrong (personally I think were fine because well... you know it's kind of imposible to create a calendar that doesn't end, they tried it with a song AND a story and both of those ended regardless of their titles implying otherwise)
