Hi! Its about a 4 hour drive for me, but I really want to be there. I think this may be the best turn out for MC Fans because of hometown support and would love the chance to meet more of those fans! So, I'm working on it. Trying to convince a friend of mine to make it a day trip where we can take in the sites, so if any MC fans out there are off that day and want to be a tour guide...let me know. Can't wait to hear Marty rock with the new band.

Anyone planning on spending the night? I assume it is going to be a late night. I'm traveling from Bloomington, IN and am definitely going to look for a hotel soon. Any other fans staying anywhere in particular or can recommend some place close to the venue?

I'll be there.  Here's a map of the surrounding area, it's heavily residential so there really aren't any hotels on the street that the venue is on.  1 Extended Stay America 1075 E Lake St, Hanover Park, IL 630-893-4823 (1.89 miles away) 2 Crest Motel 345 E Lake St, Bartlett, IL 630-837-2291 (2.89 miles away) 3 Davidson Hotels Co 2144 Green Bridge Ln, Hanover Park, IL 630-372-0097 (3.61 miles away) 4 Indian Lakes Resort 250 W Schick Rd, Bloomingdale, IL (3.69 miles away) 5 Country Inn 1401 N Roselle Rd, Schaumburg, IL 847-839-1010 (4 miles away) 6 Wingate Inn 50 Remington Rd, Schaumburg, IL 847-882-5000 (4.09 miles away) 7 Holiday Inn Chicago-Schaumburg/Hoffman Est 1550 N. Roselle Rd, Schaumburg, IL 877-410-6681 (4.14 miles away) 8 Baymont Inn 2075 Barrington Rd, Hoffman Estates, IL 847-882-8848 (4.17 miles away) 9 La Quinta Inn-Chcgo Hoffmn Est 2280 Barrington Rd, Hoffman Estates, IL 847-882-3312 (4.24 miles away) 10 Homestead 51 E State Pkwy, Schaumburg, IL 847-882-6900 (4.25 miles away) I think any chain hotel in these areas would be pretty good.  |

Does anyone know what time LA Guns will begin their set on Wednesday night? It depends on how many bands are playing. My guess would be around 9:00-10:00. |

I spoke with the venue. They said the first band goes on between 8:00 and 8:30, even thought the tickets I have say 7:00.
There are 4 bands playing and they thought LA Guns would be on around 11:00. But you know how these venues go, it could be an hour earlier than that, or an hour later.

Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know that Marty said they will be going on at 9pm tonight! Seems that many venues have weeknight curfews, so when in doubt check to see what time the venue is closing. I unfortunately missed the first 4 songs b/c we were running late, no idea our favorite night owl would be hitting the stage as early at 9pm.
Best,
Adrienne

 Hello Everybody! I just came from the show and it was AMAZING!!!! I will post more details later, but Chicago showed support for their fellow singer in great numbers! Everybody I knew from previous shows including Marty's family and friends were there. You can only imagine how happy he was! His energy electrified all of us! Marty sounded very confident in every song, my brother and I could not believe he learned and covered so many songs of LAGuns in such a short time. I told him he's a CRAZY man  The venue looked brand new to me with an excellent sound system and ventilation... outside temperature of 65 degrees at night made it a breeze for all of us.  I had to battle over the playlist a bit...after I grabbed it somebody else wanted to take it for themselves, but I punched her and said: You don't want any of this, do you?!  Just kidding, wasn't that dramatic   |
