I'm going to the show on the 7th, but my flight leaves Chicago early on the 8th, so I won't be able to make it to the party.

U2girl1978, if you haven't already booked your flights, you might look at Midway airport as well as O'Hare. Midway is closer to downtown. We live in central northwest Indiana, so we will probably drive.

Not 'officially'. Just don't let the door guys seem 'em is all and you'll be fine.

Hmm . . . I'd personally go with O' Hare if you can, for multiple reasons. I've officially thrown in the towel on Midway.

Yea I've already booked my flight with O'Hare. Midways flights weren't giving me what I wanted....Now hopefully the hotel I want will still be available by Wednesday!!!

Why's that? I actually prefer Midway, because you get in and out faster than you do at O'Hare. If your Midway experience is from several years ago, I can definitely sympathize, but it recently had a massive renovation, and it is currently one of the best airports around.

Hmm . . . maybe I was just unlucky 
And yeah . . . O'hare is often congested -- sometimes horribly. My personal airport of choice in the area is always Mitchell Field -- but that's a bit further out in the sticks for you guys

dont know if this will help anyone, but the Congress Plaza hotel has a special if you're staying 3 nights or more. So if anyone is going to be there the whole weekend, its a great deal.
A double bed room is $79 a night with that deal. The hotel is in the heart of Chicago, right off Michigan Ave. Right next to mostly all the sites, the hard rock, and 3 miles from the United Center.

click on "view current specials" and then go to "bed only."

I think we're aiming for a late afternoon party. So I doubt it'll still be going at 10ish. Sorry!
But you're welcome to say hello to the U2-Midwest" bunch in the GA line the next day. I'm sure we'll be passing around some glow sticks or something.

It's been a problem in the past...
It will be, no worries. We're trying to get the Hard Rock, like we did in 2001. Open for all ages and super fun because they put U2 cds on for us.
