Haunted
Archer Avenue:
Resurrection Mary & Beyond Saturday, January 14, 2012, 2pm -5pm
Hosted by Nichole Shanahan!
Few
roads in the world rival the super-haunted reputation of Chicago's
Archer
Avenue, home to some of the city's most legendary ghost stories,
including
the most famous Vanishing Hitchhiker on earth, Resurrection Mary.
This road was constructed by poor Irish immigrants --builders of the
controversial and ill-funded Illinois & Michigan Canal-- who
laid
down the road over an ancient Indian trail known for its spiritual
powers. The slavelike conditions of their labor, their deaths
from hunger, thirst, disease and violence: all live on in the deep
folklore of this storied region.
This tour is open to all ages, but you
may also BYOB on this very special tour. Please no hard coolers.
$30
per person. Two pickups: Clark and Ohio, Chicago, 1pm.
Chet's Melody Lounge, Summit, Illinois, 2pm. Hosted by
Nichole Shanahan.
My Bloody Valentine:
The Guns & Roses Valentine Tour February 14, 2012
Valentine's Day means so much more to Chicagoans than flowers and
chocolates. Show your loved one you truly understand the meaning
of passion when you take her on an excusion through the extremes of
Chicago emotion--from the city's most enduring romances to her
deadliest legacies.
This tour, pushing off on the most romantic night of the year, will
visit the sites of Chicago's tragic entanglements, including
the death site of Chicago's favorite date--Resurrection Mary--and
the site of the most ill-fated union in the city's history: the birth
site of the famed Devil Baby of Hull House.
We'll also visit the
beautiful Cote d'Or lounge at the Drake Hotel, where the Woman in Red
threw herself from the roof on opening night after finding her lover
with another woman, New Year's Eve, 1920. Here, we will enjoy a
special cocktail created just for us, honoring her desperate demise.
And bring some champagne (or beverage of your choice) along on
the tour, to toast to the legacy of Al Capone and Bugs Moran at the
site
of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre.
$38
per person includes full tour and specialty cocktail at the Cote D'Or. BYOB
okay on bus. Please no hard coolers.
