PERK ALERT
35% Off Waterproof Pleasure
Meet your new best friend—with some benefits: the award-winning instruments of pleasure
from Jimmyjane, discreetly yours for up to 35% off. Also yours for 25% off: a game-perfecting golf coach robot/iPhone app, and the
world’s tiniest
earphones—which only Secret Service agents could use. Until now.
SHELLING OUT
Welcome to Oyster Happy Hour
Oysters. Cold. Briny. Come in their own biodegradable package. Pretty much perfect already. But say a little
gastropub on Damen decided to hold a $1 oyster happy hour every day. Well, that’s maybe nirvana.

- Daily, 5-7pm, The Bluebird, 1749 N Damen Ave, 773-486-2473
REALLY HOPPING NOW
A New Brewpub Gets Brewing
The thing about brewpubs... they’re one-half pub, one-half brewery. In fact, that’s why they’re called
brewpubs. (Well, and because “pubwery” sounds really weird.) Anyway, Atlas Brewing Company vats have
finally begun pumping. We guess you can say they’ve reached maturity.

- Now brewing, Atlas Brewing Company, 2747 N Lincoln Ave, 773-472-1601, see the menu
ROLLING ROCK
A Party Bus Available at Your Whim
You and nine friends. Just standing around. Going nowhere. Partying. So far, so good. Except for the
standing-around part. What you need: a bus. With a DJ. And cocktails. So tonight, the car-sharing app Uber
lets you summon that very thing. Now, that’s service.
- 411:
- Aug 2, 8-11pm, $50, Uber
PALOOZAPALOOZA
If Lollapalooza Sold T-Shirts and Hats
Pre-Lolla checklist: tickets. Sunscreen. A fanny pack with iPhone speakers. If you’re missing that last
one—or a hat from Goorin Bros., or some Lolla T-shirts—visit this pop-up shop/party lounge, set up like
a room in the forthcoming Thompson hotel. Also something you didn’t pack.
- 411:
- Through Aug 6, LollaShop, 332 S Michigan Ave
’DAM COOL
The Red-Light District in Andersonville
The red-light district in Amsterdam holds a certain allure for you. So be aware: Dutch-ish spot Vincent now
has something called Koffeeshop, a new party with glow sticks, circus acts, loud music, cheap drinks and
blow-up dolls wearing sexy lingerie. But oddly, no coffee.
- 411:
- Aug 5, 10pm-2am, Vincent, 1475 W Balmoral Ave, 773-334-7168
