Chicago Magic Lounge in the Chicago Tribune

The Chicago Tribune published an article on us about our plans to open Chicago's first full-time magic bar since Schulien's closed in 1999.

That's exciting! Renewing one of magic's (and Chicago's) greatest traditions: the Magic Bar! i hope it's an amazing success! Makes me wish i was living in Chicago, one of the greatest places in the world; extraordinarily nice, friendly, delightful people too. The article mentions that Bill Malone said he cut his teeth at Little Bit'O Magic and that he worked at Houdini's 7 nights a week (any wonder Bill's so phenomenal? not to mention the weekly sessions with Marlo and company!) The article also mentions New York Lounge, enigmatically located in Chicago - another classic venue - but doesn't mention that Bill was a regular there too.
