Things to do in Chicago in the Summer

Summer is upon us here in Chicago 
(at least for a while, who knows how long the great weather will last), 

so with great weather comes all the great thing to do in Chicago for the next couple of months.

There is so much to do in Chicago, you can go eat at many of the food festivals, enjoy at concert, even enjoy at movie at the park.

So look over the list and hope to see you at a few of these places.

Please check out my other blog on all the Movies at the Park Here or the complete list Here.

Concerts in Chicago for the first half of 2011

I love going to Concerts, 

being there listening to the music, 

watching the band playing in sync with emotion, 

the amazing energy of the crowd, 
I love all of it.

This year looks to be one of the good one so far, 
with shows all around Chicago with all different styles, playing in all different places with amazing fans cheering on.

The one show I can't wait to see if Yellowcard, which is one of my favorite band of all time and it's great to see them back together and playing new musics for their fans.

I hope to see you guys there in the front row.

Movies of 2011 (or look at all the popcorn I’ll be eating)

This year like every year, the movie industry is looking to accommodate the fanboys (& fangirls)

by giving us a great selection of movies that are either comic-related, comic-influence or simply fun movies to watch.

Last year we were giving a lot of “fanboys” movie that were hit or miss like Scott Pilgrim, Red, Jonah Hex, The Losers, Iron Man 2, etc

and also movies that were amazing to watch like Toy Story 3, Inception, Despicable me, etc.
This year looks to top last year with the amount of releases and I hope with quality.

Being Charitable (or donating $1 to a good cause)

So I while back I discover Kickstarter which is a very cool website that according to their website "is a new way to fund creative ideas and ambitious endeavors."

We believe that...

• A good idea, communicated well, can spread fast and wide.
• A large group of people can be a tremendous source of money and encouragement.

Kickstarter is powered by a unique all-or-nothing funding method where projects must be fully-funded or no money changes hands.

So that means that if you donate and the goal is not reached no money gets collected and most ppl who are pputting up the project will have incentives to donate more (ex. if you donate $10 you get this, & if you donate $50 you get this, etc)

Concert In Chicago This Winter (or trying to get closer to the stage)

Many of you may already know that I LOVE going to concerts and I'm always checking to see who is coming to Chicago.

After over 1 hour of searching, i have found that a lot of artists that I like are coming to Chicago in the next couple of months, artists like Lady Antebellum, Hey Monday, Usher, Jimmy Eat World, etc.

So many in fact that i decided to write this blog to keep track of the shows and to also let all my friends and family know about them 
Now I won't be able to go to all the Shows but there are some that are CAN'T MISS.

The Shows are as follow:

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World Movie and Game Review

First of all this movie is amazing and i recommend that you and everyone you know go see it.

If you haven’t heard about Scott Pilgrim, then  I don’t know how you survived all these years so for the one or two of you who don’t know, Scott Pilgrim is a 23 yr old slacker who meets Ramona the girl of his dream (literally) and in order to date Ramona he most defeat her 7 evil exes.
