Yes another loss that’s never been reported is the rape of the Chicago Blues Fest. It used to be a free spirited,biker,hippie, New Orleans type of vibe. Then a few years ago some faceless bureaucrat in the Daley administration figured out people were bringing in their own booze so as not to buy their overpriced warm beer. Well under the guise of security they have fenced in the whole thing. No tents,flags,chairs,and of course booze. Now everyone lines up in the hot sun to get searched with nary a peep. You walk in and the flavor is gone.....and no one ever said a word.
...voting has consequences.
Funny, I was always tolf that I should go to “Taste of Chicago”.
Okay, went last year and wasn’t impressed. All the kiosks sold almost the same food, only one supplier of beer (well, one microbrew was there) and the wine was not that good.
If this is the way it always was, I have no idea what all the hubbub was about...it was maybe a 4 or 5 on a scale of 10. The Navy Pier was better.
