I’m going to be in Chicago April 21-23. I’d really love to meet some Chicago area Dopers while I’m there. The 22nd is a Friday night. Anyone want to plan some kind of a DopeFest?

My financial situation is dicey right now, so if it’s in a public venue instead of someone’s home, let’s keep it on the cheap if we can. (I’ve never been to Chicago, is anything cheap there?)
