If you are looking for the excitement I would recommend downtown - plenty to see and do . . . Otherwise Bridgeview is blah . . . It's just getting hotels near the venue that surround Midway Airport.

Countryside also has a nice Holiday Inn.

The cost differences will naturally be pretty steep.

Just make it happen. I'll have the beer bong for ya!

The Lincoln Park daughter is now the Downtown girl.
She taught me the beer bong technique last year in your sand,
I wonder if she moved up to wine now!

Otherwise, same dilema as Tinley-
Want to spend time with her downtown, but will have the van + trailer with us. Much easier to drop the trailer in a normal suburban parking lot and then drive into town .
Is Bridgeview like Tinley Park, i.e. big lots with free parking?

The Bridgeview area hotels are the Airport Hotels so space may be limited. It is much denser in the bridgeview area.

Countryside I doubt you have any problems with the parking.

Joliet had it's advantages!
The staff at the hotel assumed trailers were normal, and marveled at how the other Parrotheads could travel without one.

Speaking of Joliet, :pirate:
It was nice to know in advance that peeing off the top of the hill on the grass at Tinley was acceptable!
That made tailgate imbibing less worrysome.
Looks like Toyota may be a little more classy than that, like wait in the real line, etc.
True?

hahaha... I know! One of the guys mentioned that before I was allowed to retire I had to find replacement... It's hard work, but I'm sure we could find a suitable substitute for me!!! A pair of "loaner boobies" as it were...

because I'd rather spend time with him when he's not working... So I'm just going to go to weekend shows, and spend a little time with him at night. I'm saving my time and heading out his way for a few weeks in between legs... Call me selfish, but I like spending time when it's just us and we don't have to worry about that guy who signs his paychecks interfering because he wants surfing footage or some other crazy stuff....

You know you hit it right on the head and thats good. Adult time as we call it in the Parents circuit is pretty valuable shite.

Always plenty to do in Chicago. I can't say the same for po-dunk Wisconsin.
