<title>Jump off the Train!</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        Riding piggyback overnight from LaCrosse, Wisconsin my traveling friends and I woke up to ChicagoLand. We knew we had to get off soon -- it was broad daylight and there was *gasp* a cop shadowing the train. We threw our bags off the train and then ourselves. Laughing at the silly looks we received from all the commuters waiting for the next Metra we joined in waiting as well.  My companions started making coffee with a rocket stove and some jackass thought it was a bomb and called the cops on us. The cops came, ran our names, and then let us get on the arriving Metra. Welcome to Chicago?<br/>Tags: freight train, berwyn, illinois, coffee, cops<br /><br /><a href="http://platial.com/post/103171">Map this on Platial</a><br />

<title>Fitzgeralds</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        FitzGerald's was built in the 1920's and has always been a gathering spot, from the early days as a hunting club and watering hole through its teen years as a jazz club during the 50's and 60's, featuring acts like Bob Scobey, Turk Murphy, Lil Armstrong, and the Original Salty Dogs. The FitzGerald family bought and renovated the building in 1980, and since then its reputation for great music in a casual, comfortable, unpretentious atmosphere has grown steadily. Chicago Magazine calls it &quot;a musical gem,&quot; and the club has consistently found itself in the top 5 in Chicago polls of favorite venues.</p><p>Over the years, we realized that there were a few things that we would like to offer -- good food, an &quot;away&quot; room for customers to meet and talk, and a separate space for gatherings and parties. Through the years we acquired the buildings on either side of us, and in 2001 we took the plunge and began to restore them to their original 1920's glory, with the help of the Berwyn Development Corporation.</p><p>We replaced all of the wiring and plumbing, designed and rebuilt storefronts, restored plaster walls and original tin ceilings, refinished the original wood floors and added beautiful art glass windows and period fixtures and finishes. A new mural was painted on the outside west wall facing the club. As a result, we can now offer food in our Roosevelt Grill restaurant and SideBar, and an elegant, intimate private party room. We are very proud of this project, and hope that you'll have a chance to visit and enjoy our new spaces. </p><p>---<a href='http://www.fitzgeraldsnightclub.com'>www.fitzgeraldsnightclub.com<br/>Tags: fitzgeralds, berwyn, events, reviews<br /><br /><a href="http://platial.com/post/1048565">Map this on Platial</a><br />
