    I don't even know who's supposed to be singing for that concert, but I probably wouldn't do a Q101 deal for New Year's. I usually find dive bars with friendly people, this year will be doing something small with friends but usually we go out to somewhere like Vaughn's in Jefferson Park or the Gladstone(Milwaukee and something).

    What kind of party are you looking for in Chicago? A place to see the fireworks, a place to eat/drink? I don't know of any other concerts in the downtown area. You can find a lot of stuff happening on Michigan Ave, but I highly doubt there's going to be anything cheap along that route. See what the Drake Hotel is doing, it's close to the water and other bars.

    the q101 looked attractive, but $150-200 for a sublime trip ( a head) isnt worth it. We were in wrigleyville for halloween and had a blast, traveling from boystown, south.

    Victoria is only 20 Ya i want to drink but im a bit limited on options. I dunno, maybe im just surprised that nothing is being done in grant/mil park. seems like im stuck to navy pier or heading north to be around people and a decent party.

    She lives on state, so I just want to take advantage of me being downtown this weekend.

    Chicago is not a very friendly under-21 NYE place. A lot of bars/clubs do packages on NYE instead of being open as usual. The best under 21 NYE I've had in the city were having a party at a friend's apt and getting wasted.

    Some cool bars to go to downtown - Kerryman, Green Door Tavern, Blue Frog (for some cheap karaoke), Bull and Bear, Howl at the Moon, Theory, Hub 51 (if you want to be douchy)
