Does anyone know of any good karaoke bars in the Chicago land area? Suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Amy ---

Where in the Chicago area? If you wanna come up to the NW suburbs, I can find out where my sister goes. I know one place is Chaser’s on Route 21. This should probably be in IMHO or MPSIMS. ---

It’s a dive but there’s a place on Irving and California that has it every friday night and is usually packed.Called The Peek Inn. ---

‘The Bird’s Nest’ on Southport, just North of Fullerton started doing this on Mondays, I believe. A few of my friends & I happened on it a couple weeks ago & it was good fun. There were only about 10 people there (in the back room) which was fine with us. I did ‘American Girl’, by Tom Petty & ‘The Gambler’, by Kenny Rogers. They also have free pool, but you better double check which night this is on. - JC
