This week (March 9th) will mark the next big pop-up restaurant to hit Chicago:  one themed around the TV show It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia.

According to Eater, the latest brainchild of Replay Lincoln Park will transform their location into a tribute to Paddy’s Pub.  It will include drinks like Rum Ham and The Chardee Mac Dennis IV Bag (maybe a fine canned wine as well?).  The food of choice?  Philly cheese steaks.  And they will have a photo opp for you and your gang to….well, live just like The Gang.

This isn’t the first time these folks have done a pop-up….they also had runs with Rick & Morty as well as The Simpsons.  It all ends on March 17th.  — [eric]

 

Foo Fighters Combine John Lennon & Van Halen…(Surprisingly Delicious)

March 4, 2018 | Eric

It’s been a interesting week of mashups — go ahead and look up Ratt/Marvin Gaye in Google — but the Foo Fighters are streaking towards the number one entry of the week.

Who knew that “Imagine” and “Jump” would go together like lamb and tuna fish?  Crossing my fingers they drop this on the crowds at Wrigley for two shows…July 29th and July 30th.  — [eric]

Linkin Park members spotted in a studio together

March 4, 2018 | Kevin

So the guys in Linkin Park have been through a lot in the last year with the tragic loss of their singer Chester Bennington and they had to deal with honoring his legacy through a very memorable tribute show last year. Recently LP’s Mike Shinoda released the very emotional solo EP called ‘Post Traumatic’ (listen to it above), but this week other members appear to be with Shinoda in a recording studio in social media posts. It’s unclear if this could potentially lead to Linkin Park making music together or if this something involved in Shinoda’s solo work.

LP’s Brad Denso appeared in this IG post.

Brad is in the studio with Mike today! #mikeshinoda #braddelson
