Meghan's Bio

Growing up in Rockford, Illinois, Meghan had to search far and wide for cultural events and excellent shows.  Almost always these searches ended up in Chicago.  Since the age of 16 she’s been visiting Chicago to go to off-beat venues to see local bands.  Now that she lives in Chicago and is of age, she loves to look for cheap bars and the grungier side of night life.  Metal bars and drum and bass are at the top of the list for her, but the occasional classy opera is always welcome.  She looks for the more unconventional side to anything, loving Dub step and crusty old bars and abandoned firehouses.
