Loved the first episode in London - I lived there for 8 years and you still found new stuff I'd never seen! Today's was also amazing and definitely makes me want to revisit Chicago and go on guitar safari - so many amazing places and people! Any chance you guys could do Nashville next? There's gotta be so much guitar history and culture to explore!

@@yetanotherbassdude Nashville is absolutely amazing. It an extraordinary city for guitar shopping. Of course, it’s packed with music history and live music (at least during normal times). There’s a lot of music history and live music in Memphis as well. The guitar shopping isn’t near as good though.

Chinatown is gorgeous at night!.....Greek town and Lincoln Ave for miles is a blast!...... definitely visit CME to see what a music store really looks like - get urself a CME t-shirt too!......the clubs are always poppin ......get a copy of the Reader and the Illinois Entertainer newspapers at a store or stand and take a minute to see what is happening music wise ......many plays are performed in smaller playhouses and store front galleries........please take the time and really go everywhere for the food ....we have the best steak houses and ethnic restaurants thruout the inner city ........I hope you have fun - we are kind and considerate people for the most part and if u ask questions - people will help u find ur way! .....it's my favorite place in the world and in my 53+years on Earth - iv traveled across the country and the globe - but i will live no where else ....

@Big_Bag_of_Pus 4 года назад

Great video. One place I wish you'd made it to is the Old Town School of Folk Music. Despite the name, it covers a broad range of music genres, including (of course) rock; and is, for my money, the best music school for the amateur musician in the world. I haven't lived in Chicago for 21 years, but I still miss it like crazy. Bob Koester's Jazz Record Mart would have been a no-brainer too, like Reckless; but it's apparently gone now. :( Sad to hear about the Double Door.

@tellett1 4 года назад

Big Bag of Pus OSFM is an institution!

@ronj9448 4 года назад

Jazz Record Mart is now on Irving near Kimball . I just went in there the other day and bought a DVD of a Dave Spector performance. If you haven't been in Chicago for 20 then you never visited OTS's new buildings up on Lincoln Ave and Wilson. And that they were sinking last year because of overspending and dropping enrollment. They have new management and it seems for the better. I take classes there now.

@Big_Bag_of_Pus 4 года назад
