Back To The Office.
What a fun weekend. I had so much fun with the CIWWAF dudes. I took them to a Blackhawks game Sunday night and out to Angels & Kings last night and we went in hard. Good times. Johnny Minardi needs to hang out more or move to the city.
The Ward headlines Metromix today. Check it out!
44th Ward Dinner Party is open!!!
Today is the first day of business for The Ward. We had a great celebration last night at the space and some great friends came and partied down with us. I ended my night by skateboarding to get pizza at 4am in my nice suit, falling, ripping a hole in the elbow and cutting my side. Sucks, but at least I have an awesome story to tell about the opening of the restaurant.
Go check out The Ward this...
One Liners.
Lollapalooza headliners are weak this year. The parties better make up for that.
Please vote for my roommate/best friend’s band PLAIN WHITE T’S on VH1.com.
44th Ward opens so so soon. So excited. I cannot wait to eat the 60657 again.

This is my friend Robby playing part of a song that him and my friend Chris are working on. I’m helping them get their stuff together. You will hear more of them soon. We used to sit together in the cafe in High School and make fun of stuff and tell jokes. We still talk about those same things. I love these kids.
P.S. Yes, we know. Robby looks like Pete. He hears it all the time.
Friday Is My Day.
My mom texted me last night about this but I was already out. So I decided to check it out this morning. I am so pumped that our president is this rad. Obama on Jay Leno.
Tonight should be fun. Dan Suh is in town and he is DJing in Chicago Friday @ Griffin Lounge and Saturday at Angels & Kings. Whenever he comes to Chicago we always get pretty rowdy.
Slow Motion
I know that I have been slow with updating my blog, my apologies. There are a few reasons for this:
1. Nice weather. I’ve been trying to stay outside as much as possible. 2. De’Mar went on tour so I am trying to fill my time with more productive things since I just gained about 6 hours of free time a day from this.
3. Work. We have been chopping things up pretty hard over at WCST....
Earth's Furnace is broken again.
I wake up everyday and the only thought in my mind is going back to sleep. As I fight this I usually try to get my mind onto something so I can slowly wake up. I do this by checking blogs and other stuff, like the weather…but when I realize that it is 12 degrees outside. It makes going back to sleep sound like the best idea ever.
I went to get my daily vanilla soy latte and the cafe...
110% real. This is my real life and I am sorry.
Please?
Hey! Exciting news!
We are nominated for Best New Bar in Chicago. Please take a few seconds and go vote for Angels & Kings.
Thanks!
This is really crazy and kind of cute.
Brilliant.
Table For Glasses.
What an eventful weekend it has been. On Friday, a bunch of us went to eat at some rib shack that was also in the dark knight. No, I did not eat ribs. I had vegetarian sloppy joes and that shit was tastier than muhh fuhhh.
Last night me and my close friends went and saw Jimmy Eat World play Clarity in its entirety. The 4 of us have been friends and listening to that record since we were 16. So...
