This is Chicago. I am from Chicago and it is a great city. Lets look at it together, from the mouth of the river to the neighborhoods where REAL Chicago citizens live.

Sure we go to Navy Pier, when we have an extra day to park and a spare $500 to have snacks and some goods with Chicago on it..

But more likely you will see real Chicagoans in one of the many bars and clubs in the area. Every type of music is represented in Chicago, an international mecca for music of all types. Here is Hinda Hoffman, one ot the best vocalists in jazz today performing at a Chicago club.
