The Best Horror Films of 2017 (So Far)
(from vulture.com)
The conversation around horror movies this year has been dominated by two words: Get Out. Jordan Peele’s boundary-breaking thriller has deservedly become the reflexive response to the question, “Seen any good horror movies lately?” But while Peele’s directorial debut has been generating early Oscar buzz, a lot of other great horror movies have hit theaters so far this year. Young actresses like Anya Taylor-Joy, Sennia Nanua, and Garance Marillier have impressed in showcase roles, while occult stories like A Dark Song and The Blackcoat’s Daughter have moved past the well-worn exorcism narrative in favor of more distinct takes on satanic horror. And there have also been some very good bad guys! Here then, are the best horror films of the year so far that aren’t Get Out. (But there’s also Get Out.) (MORE HERE)
Watch Weezer perform boozed-up new track ‘Happy Hour’ on ‘Late Show
Weezer fresh off releasing their new chill vibes album ‘Pacific Daydream’ on Friday, performed last night on the ‘Late Show’ with Stephen Colbert. This new album has such a soulful relaxed vibe, and this live version of ‘Happy Hour’ really cements that here. Also check out Rivers Cuomo rocking the cardigan like he did in ‘Blue Album’ era music videos, that’s a sweater I do not want to destroy while holding a thread as he walks away.
Listen to new Weezer album ‘PACIFIC DAYDREAM’ in it’s entirety here.
Weezer played the NIGHTS WE STOLE CHRISTMAS last year, the festive fun continues this year at the Aragon!

Watch Arcade Fire perform in a boxing ring with UFC style entrance
Aracde Fire are performing in the round on their current arena tour which brought them to the United Center last night. This situation can create some production challenges. so how do you get the band on stage while generating hype? Well why not make the stage into a pro wrestling/boxing ring and have the band walk out like they are going into a big title fight!
It’s funny to hear to all the fictional awards mentioned during their introduction like their Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Award.
The stage/ring is a really striking and engaging idea for a live show. I’d love to get that ring for a pic!
Here are some other social media highlights from last night’s AF show. Check out the 101WKQX Instagram to see what we were up to last night with the Struts at our sold-out Halloween Bash.
Amazing set tonight from @ArcadeFire! Thanks to everyone who visited for the show. Have a great night, Chicago. pic.twitter.com/MkpCeUBmHf

City Hall wants to make bus riding ‘sexy’
Who knew the “T” and “A” in CTA really stands for T & A?! City Hall wants to make bus riding ‘sexy’ to reverse “eroding” ridership tied to ride-hailing. I mean, nothing gets me all hot and ready to ride the bus like the usual stink of urine and stale Cheetos… but maybe they could start by hosing the buses down? Or telling them they are beautiful and look great in those tires? GTFO
The things nightmares are made of :X
More from Chicago Sun-Times here
What would make bus riding more sexy to you? Maybe a rush-hour cta pole-dance competition? Tweet me.

Whoever runs the Twitter @Hopperdancingto is a clever little devil as they have edited the surly and protective Sheriff Hopper from the hit Netflix series ‘Stranger Things’, into a dancing clips with music that was never meant to accompany his dad-dancing-at-a-wedding moves. The results have been quite hilarious, and you can see more Hopper’s out-of-place hip swivels to jams from Sum 41, Good Charlotte, and Smash Mouth.

Woman Dresses Her Dog As A Mop, It’s The Best Pet Costume Ever
(from boredpanda.com)
If you’re tired of the same-old-same-old when it comes to canine Halloween costumes, get ready for something that just screams originality – and cuteness. The town of Covington, Kentucky recently held its annual Mainstrasse Paw-Rade, a big street party that lets dogs dress up and strut their stuff, and a Hungarian puli participant named Keki ended up stealing the show.

Made Up Bean Meme Events That Look Fun
(from chicagoist.com)
If you live in Chicago and you’re on Facebook, you’ve seen it. Probably several times a day. By “it,” we mean the Bean meme phenomenon, which has spurred literally dozens of joke (we hope) “events” at Millennium Park’s public-art showpiece. Cornball, non-sequitur examples, like Have a tall boy with the bean at Coles and—perhaps the king of them all—Windex the Bean, have thousands of RSVPs and “interested” clicks. But given that Internet culture finds nothing so hilarious as committedly actualizing its most tossed-off throwaway gags, we wondered, could any of these happen? And if so, could any actually be worth visiting? As it happens, a few of them wouldn’t be such a bad way to kill a few minutes. Here are five highlights: (MORE HERE)
Add Googly Eyes to the Bean and only refer to it as Steve
Don’t need to rename it, and we wouldn’t want to leave the bespoke eyeballs on for eternity, but temporarily anthropomorphizing the big fella—and inverting that relentless tourist gaze!—seems like a good time, as long as we could guarantee no structural damage. One to keep in mind for the next installment of the Year of Public Art.
In 2012 Conan launched ridiculous objects over Chicago’s legendary State Street Bridge. One of those objects was a replica of The Bean. (WATCH BELOW)
