Running furnace calls all over the city but my after-work radius always loops back to Pilsen and the spots near Thalia Hall. These are the bars I actually come back to, not just hit once for a show. No cap on any of these, for real.

Name	Comment	Neighborhood	Address	City
1Punch House	Basement bar under Thalia Hall, I duck in here before every show upstairs. Punch bowls are built for splitting with the crew, not for solo drinking.	Pilsen	1227 W 18th St, Chicago, IL 60608	Chicago
2Skylark	Cash only, dark as a crawlspace, tater tots that'll ruin you for other bar food. Been going here since my apprentice days, still a staple.	Pilsen	2149 S Halsted St, Chicago, IL 60608	Chicago
3Simone's Bar	Built outta salvaged school desks and good vibes. Trivia on Tuesdays wrecks me every time, karaoke Sundays is a whole different animal.	Pilsen	960 W 18th St, Chicago, IL 60608	Chicago
