Hey everyone,
Our event this Saturday for The Nation Guide to the Nation is a Time Out Chicago Critic's Pick! And there's a nifty article to accompany it.

And as if you needed another reason to come out this Saturday... there will be free stuff! That's right! Swag from the Nation! From Living and Drinking Liberally! From Headzup!

The swag is while supplies last, so get there early.
Food and drinks will be available for purchase, and the No Exit Cafe is generous enough to be hosting this event for free, so go early and have some of their great food!

Hey everyone,
DLer Pat emailed us to remind us that President Obama is, in fact, giving a "State of the Union" style address tonight.

Will we watch it at tonight's Drinking Liberally? Yes, we will.

Will we talk about it afterwards? Yes, we will.

Is that another reason for you to come out to Sheffield's tonight? Yes, it is.

See you tonight at the back room at Sheffield's, 3258 N. Sheffield Avenue. 7pm.

So last night's Drinking Liberally was a huge success. Tom Geoghegan, who is running in the special election for the Illinois 5th Congressional District stopped by, shared a drink, and talked to us about the March 3rd primary.

DLer Steve Stearns took these great photos.

Hey everyone,
We have some pretty cool news.
Tom Geoghegan, who is a candidate in the special election for the 5th Congressional District seat, will be attending this Tuesday's Drinking Liberally.

For those not familiar with Tom, he's a Chicago labor lawyer and author of several books, including "Which Side Are You On?".

So, come on out, meet, and have a drink with the candidate!
