The name itself >has become shorthand for nonconformity and innovation. Well, Bucktown was in decline in the eighties and early nineties, and it did experience an influx of artists and other creative types in the mid nineties, but at this point the only people who can afford to live there, or seem to want to live there, are distinctly yuppie, SUV-driving, 2.5 child-bearing, cell-phone-abusing white folks. I lived there from 91-94 and then was priced out due to rapidly rising rents. The very street where I was mugged in 93 by two baseball bat-wielding crackheads now boasts homes selling for half a mil. >>....Ahhhh, but there's the Hideout in that area, right? Yes, thankfully, the Hideout still resides in unincorporated Bucktown. Check out www.hideoutchicago.com for the scoop on this amazing place. I have never seen Kelly Hogan behind the bar, but I have heard her sing and it was lovely....

And she's already got a SAG card!" then he sent me a link to the apple computer ad. another friend from that list works at the knitting factory and has spotted liz there at least once. and there was the book soup sighting a while back. i do believe she is an LA woman right now. sandra NP: the supersuckers, "hung over together" ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2001 23:27:37 From: "Katie Brown" Subject: allison Hi! this is a rushed post... *yikes* forgive me if i'm sloppy... :) regarding the Boston Avalon show with liz doing the elvis costello cover _Allison_ i still don't believe that there was a recording of this show and it kills me. it was the night i met Lani from this list and she is now one of my closest girlfriends! it was also the night we met liz... :) the problem with that night is that it was a private party for WFNX and there weren't a ton of liz phans there. i was under the impression that WFNX was going to broadcast it at some point and if i had known otherwise i might have invested in a $250 DAT or something because it is a real bummer that it's pretty much the only rare track we can hunt down. i have tried contacting some of the news and radio places that we use in the city of boston... and it's just not out there as far as i can tell. FNX is no help either... stupid sexy radio stations :) gotta run - miss you peeps and talk to you later love KB _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2001 20:13:13 EST From: AWeiss4338@aol.com Subject: Re: random nothingness In a message dated 01-03-23 17:31:58 EST, mesmerizing@earthlink.net writes: > don't know why i didn't think of posting this to the list before, but a > chicagoan on my old 97's list, who knows that i like her, posted this: "btw, > the New City Chicago edition booted Liz Phair off of their list of the 45 > most > influential people on the Chicago music scene 'cuz Liz, they report, moved > to > LA.

So what's wrong with Liz moving to LA? She does have the right to do that. It's rather annoying to hear something like this.
