It's now more sorta touristy and seems like it's for yuppies and suburbanites. It's sad. I remember when all the leather was in the cage. It's now sort of like a mini Goth Mall that spills out out on Clark. It's really big. Yes they have some of the same things. But those things are now being mass made for stores like it. I think it's sponsord by the Alt radio station Q101 or something like that. I do have to say that's it's been like this for a while now...But I have noticed a DEFINITE change since I left. But it was headed in that direction for the last decade. Things that have made the Belmontish area less funky... The Fence on Belmont and Clark on the corner of Punkin Donuts The Absence of ANY coffee shops Near the Alley (really its Starfucks and Punkin Donuts) The transformation of the Alley into what it is now The buyout of Wax Trax Medusas Closing 
The closing of Flashy Trash they went all hot topic/corporate on people now? nooooo!!!!  I was thinking of saying Hot topic for goths...but yeah...kinda sorta. I mean there is quality stuff there....but it's all nice and stuff inside. Nothing is sacred. Christian Zombie Vampires | |

Sorry for my non-existance on this thread. My life has been way too funky busy to completely participate. Not sure whats really going on. Info on the boat? Info on Cafe Baba for cborgmans b-day is sorta nil (I doubt he's coming..we can all still go if you wanna)  I hope you all are good enough friends to hook up....sorry this isn't much of an invasion. I'll most likely see y'all at berlin though. 
Ivy...I'll probably give you a call on the Wrecka Stow shopping...at least that seems to be happening. Christian Zombie Vampires | |

Hey there lovely purple people...
I thought I would be able to organize this...but being couple thousand miles away as well as my life is crazy right now. If you guys can get this a little more nailed down that would be great. I have only seen like one or two CHGO peeps keeping up with this...so it makes it a bit more difficult to plan stuff for those of us coming out of town. The list so far... Superspaceboy RealFiness PurpleKisses Nakedpianoplayer Enuffnsd (will be in town) Mach (+2) SirTony DawnRose Sinisterpentatonic (Sinister???) Eroticcitynpg Funk Mistress Handsclapsfingersnaps Not sure who the CHGO ones are...TOFKA, Hey Baby. Is Anxy joining in the festivities? The proposed activities are: Friday - Dinner (Chicago Diner?) Saturday Day - Boatride, Wreka Stow SHopping Saturday Night - ??? Sunday - Brunch Sunday Night – Berlin As far as I know Cborgman is not coming. I think he isn't coming to this site anymore and my email attempts have gone by the wayside. So that leaves me to the belief that he's not coming.Hey there lovely purple people...

Spacey, I know we'll see Anx at Berlin and Friday night is out for him cuz he's gotta work. I do know from speaking to Erin/FunkMistress yesterday that she is definately not coming. Like I said before, I am picking up brownsugar and ehuffnsd for Berlin Sunday night and brownsugar has expressed interest in going record shopping with us on Saturday but I'm not sure if she still wants to.
I'm all for going to Chicago Diner Friday night and anyone is free to Orgnote me that's not listed to exchange numbers if they want to participate. SirTony said on this thread he was still coming. So,Tony,Orgnote me. | |
