This is a really nice little comedy theater in Chicago. I have only been here a couple of times, but each time I have gotten to see a different comedian and each one was absolutely hilarious.
You will really enjoy this club because not only are the shows good but the whole atmosphere is fun and lively. It is a small theater and it feels very comfy. Make sure to try to call in beforehand and reserve seating and find out their specials too.

Around here, we just call this radio station the wizard. This college radio station that's broadcast from the campus of Northeastern Ill. Univ. sure has gone thru some changes. I have listened on and off thru-out the years. It's hard to pick up at times. I don't think you can listen to them on the web. I don't think even they could even describe their current style. If you had to; you would say it's a hodgepodge of everything.
At one time in the early eighties before I attended here they were pretty well known for Punk and had some radical DJs.

This happens to be the best place in the city of Chicago. Yes, I am a north sider. For us real Cub fans there will always be next year, and we have no problems with that as long as the field stays the way that it is with the ivy and old style beer. This is the perfect hang out place for any sunny work day when you are playing sick.

Want to get back at your friends? Have them come to Whirly Ball with you. Once they get strapped in to that go cart they will understand what you mean by stop eating all of my chips, John! They put a whiffle ball out and it is your job to get it across the court and hit as many other people as you can in the process. As long as you can take a beating as well as dish one out then this place is a lot of fun.

You are talking about twenty dollars or so to go around the city on this boat tour and relax in the sun. I do this every year as a refresher on my city and to just do something different for a while. It is an interesting tour. This isn't romantic or anything, but it does make for a good date.

Bowling is the new Black. While Waveland stays true to their roots, they are constantly searching for the ?it? factor: the newest, hottest, flashiest thing around. Whether it?s decoration or music, Waveland has it.
Because Waveland is such a landmark, be prepared to wait or call ahead to see how busy it is. They do not take reservations, so be prepared to wait in line, deli style. While you wait, grab a bite at Alley Dogs ? which is much more than just dogs. They serve gyros, Mexican food, and even something for the vegetarians! There are two bars at Waveland, both with exceptional service. (Chris waited on us. Nice guy.)
Did I mention they have pool? These pool tables are incredible! Whether or not you?re actually going to Waveland to bowl or not, you must stop in and see these tables. I have never seen anything like it!
The staff is pretty friendly, for the most part. When our ball got stuck because my girlfriend didn?t throw it hard enough, they were happy to assist. Waveland is also clean every single time I am there. The bathrooms and locker room is spotless.
Bowling at Waveland has changed over the years. Recently, they went to an all pre-pay system, and they now charge per hour instead of per game. Either way, it?s still a fantastic deal.
Have kids? They practically entertain themselves at my daughter?s favorite Disney Movie Theater, down by lane 40. It?s always locked, I think. The front desk can open it for you.
Does anyone remember the ?old? Waveland? It was rough, and had a bad crowd. Now, they have security (Chicago Police) there every night. They strictly enforce Chicago curfew, which is nice, because after a certain hour, it?s mostly adults. (You know, the mature kind.)
I love Waveland. My parents took me there when I was a child, and now I?m taking my daughter there. Tradition, Waveland Bowl style.
Pros: The front counter ladies recognize the regulars, atmosphere, price, SECURITY ON A REGULAR BASIS.
Cons: SOME of the staff, certainly not all.

I love this place because the matinee price for a movie is 5 dollars. It is the place to go to watch movies that your not so sure you want to pay full price to see. It is a low budget theater though and they have no captain seat to sit in but the people are friendly and the bathrooms are livable. Plus you can't beat the price!
