If you missed me showing you the play by play on twitter & facebook of Lollapalooza this year, enjoy these pictures!

I struck up a friendship and mutual admiration with hotelier Ian Schrager over the last year and he asked me and our Rockit Ranch Productions team to help him as his Creative Consultant for the Pump Room Bar on his newest project PUBLIC Chicago. For details see http://www.PublicHotels.com .. Also, this exciting project is HIRING NOW!!! Email [email protected] if interested ASAP. More info to come!!!!!!

A few weeks back in a little bar over on Halsted a band caught my eye. I am usually seeking out the latest dub or electro to hit the scene, but back in the day I used to actually pick up my guitar. The blues, and rock & roll are actually what initiated my passion for music.

It's been an honor to have been asked to co-host events for The President of the United States over the last couple years (click here to see a clip), and I am excited to pass along the invitation to his 50th Birthday Party right here in our great hometown of Chicago w/performances by Jennifer Hudson, OK Go & Herbie Hancock! Click here for info! See you there!

When I picked up the Chicago Reader "Best of Chicago" Edition, I was shocked & honored that I won “Best Person to Follow on Twitter!” I truly appreciate all of you for showing interest in what I do behind the scenes in the entertainment & hospitality biz, giving me feedback & advice, and coming out to enjoy the fun!

For the first time ever Chicago is celebrating what's called "Social Media Week" as area businesses and some of the top social media names in Chicago will get together for a week long series of events revolving around every facet of social media. Included in the board of advisors for Social Media week is Adam Brown, currently at Dell computers, who was at one point one of the masterminds behind one of the most popular brands on Facebook, Coca-cola.

After I filmed my weekly segment on Thursdays at 9am on ABC TV's "Windy City Live" today (click here to see it!), I had a ton of people asking me about my Katy Perry story that I told on air, saying she...
