The closest one for me is 3 1/2 hour away. It would be cool to go to that though.

How far away do you live, SetnicK? Are you familiar with Naperville? I have been trying to learn more about things there. There is a bar called Quigley's Irish Pub. I think I will ask DH out for a drink.

I'm afraid I don't know much about Naperville at all; I live in Indiana, 3 hours or so away.

Mary, Setnick may not be old enough to be having drinks at a bar.

Oh, yeah. For the record Mary was not encouraging SetnicK or anyone else to patronize establishments where alcohol is served. It turns out that Quigley's Irish pub is also a restaurant and a woman form Naperville I've chatted with says she takes her family there for breakfast sometimes, but it is noisy and smoky at night. So perhaps SetnicK would like to go there for some oatmeal with raspberries or cold cucumber soup.

October 22nd in Npaerville. You have to buy a ticket ($15) ahead of time to see him perform a show. With the ticket you get a book. After the show you line up according to your ticket # to get your book signed.
