My friend manages the Adidas Concept store and they are having a VIP party this weekend. I'm driving Friday during the day, arriving Friday evening. He also got us free tickets to 'paloza.

Anyways, what do I need to do while there, and any chance of seeing a nice tour or two?

on a side note David Beckam and Jennifer Aniston where in his store this week...

Too short of notice I'm guessing mang. CCEG has been having trouble getting planned out meets rolling so I'd say this weekend is out.

It's all good, any advice on what to see in town. I'm sure I'll get a good tour of the local bars...

Way too many things to list. Navy Pier, Hancock, Sears Tower, Shed's Aquarium, Adler Planetarium, Museum of Science & Industry, The Field Museum of Natural History etc. etc. etc.

Red Sox are in town if you like baseball. It shouldn't be too hard to score some tix, even though large crowds are expected. I'll be at the Cell tonight. On Saturday they'll even have a nice fireworks show right after the game. Go White Sox!

I'm going with my "drinking buddies" so the museums I doubt, tell me more about Navy Pier.

I've been before and done the Sears Tower and a few other places...

The Sears Tower is awesome to go up in. I recommend getting there early as the lines get big quick. Think it took us 2 hours total.

Anyways the Museum of Science and Industry is alright, dont know I'd spend a day there again.

There is Six Flags about 1 hour from Chicago.

That's when you go to the John Hancock center and go up to the 90th story open air deck.
