Where do you like to go dancing on a Saturday
night in Chicago, and why?

Thanks!

Hi!,

I really like 'El Jardin' and 'Hi Tops' (very close to each other).

El Jardin is on Clark, about 3500 North (right after you cross the
tracks). It looks kinda small and dead but the second floor rocks!
(best margaritas I've had in these places too 8-0 ).

Hi Tops is a little more laid back, it's about three blocks from El
Jardin (going north but not on Clark, can't remember the name of the
street, just ask).

Have fun ;-)

Miguel

Excalibur  is one of the best clubs in Chicago

Why?  There are 3 floors of fun!!  The top for constant dancing,.  The
middle for "good ol" entertainment comedy.  And the basement for food
and videos.  Not to leave out that there are pool tables throughout
the club.

It's very reasonably priced and beautiful women consider it a hot spot
;-)

The Bop Shop (Division & ??,  across from Phyllis's) offeres swing
dancing every other Wednesday, and Cajun on the alternating
Wednesdays.  Or at least it did.

I used to work at Excalibur...I was the one who cleaned up the puke of the
yuppies and hookers that swarmed through that place like goddamned
roaches.....

I have a bit of a bad taste in my mouth as a result......:)

Yeah, Excalibur, if you like overdressed yuppie wanna-bees and tourists 
packing in the doors for overpriced drinks and overdone women...  Too 
many people in suits trying to look ritzy.  Anyone who has a job 
professional enough to wear a suit to work, RARELY wears one out on their 
weekends.. Come on...

Got that smack dab on the nose... My choice is one of two places. The 
Metro in Wrigleyville or the Vic. Both places have great asmosphere and 
fairly good priced drinks. The best part about the Vic is it is the only 
theater that you can yell and scream at a movie while drinking a beer 
till 4am. WOW....

Maybe I'll go there again tonight.  Hmmmm....

Earlier I said Neo...someone just kill me for that.  I should've said,
"CROBAR on Thursday nights", or any Dom/Sub night at any club in town.

I'm kinda surprised to see that no one's mentioned the Deadly Dragon Sound
System (Sunday nights at the Empty Bottle).
Also, Club 950's Thursday night 80s' party "Planet Earth" can be really
fun, if you're into that sort of thing.

Three words:  Red Dog.  Monday.

It'll make your spleen quiver.
