Blokes and Birds and our 'business' meeting

We're very excited to let you all know that Unofficial in Chicago 2011 is being planned as we speak... and it all started off with our first 'business' meeting of the year at Blokes and Birds.

B&B is in our Lakeview 'hood, it's a new bar and there's a mustache on the front door... so we were in.

We went on a Wednesday, which meant a 'nip' and a pint for $5. I didn't know what this meant either, but it's basically a half-shot of whiskey and a decent beer served on it's own platter. And cheap!

Side note - one of us did not wanted to be seated in the downstairs section because she was convinced that sitting in a confined room with no windows would guarantee a more festive time than she wanted to enjoy on a work night.

Naturally, we were seated downstairs. She was right.

...Has anyone else checked the English-style pub out? Did you dig it?

Hello world!

First off, welcome! We've been working double-time to put together this new site to help serve as place where we can bring together all of our efforts. And, we're pretty proud of what we've accomplished so far and we love to show it off.

While it will always be a work in progress, our initial content is intended to be relevant to our audience - Chicagoans who are looking for fun, unique events without breaking the bank.

So thanks for stopping by! Please poke around (I recommend starting with learning a bit about us and our upcoming events) and if you have any ideas for the website or our brand in general, I'd love to hear from you.
