“Bailout” World Premiere at Music Box Theater - Courageous and Eye Opening
Written by Paul Black

Superbly directed by Sean Fahey, “Bailout” is a powerful film that takes a look at the housing disaster that has taken place across America in recent years, the events leading up to the crash and the corruption that exists behind the scenes. “Bailout” takes its audience across the country, along with five colorful friends in a Winnebago, for a firsthand look on how this recent financial crisis has affected homeowners, particularly the lower and middle class. Make no mistake about it as Fahey uses the word “fraud” many times throughout the film when referring to the actions of…

Is May too soon for Bears talk? Nope!
Written by Mike Kincaide

With both the Bulls and the Hawks both sitting out the next few months, and the Cubs and Sox both twirling in mid-card hell, its time to start giving our attention to the rightful champions of the city, The Bears. Is May too early to be excited about football? Nah... So here's the good: You should be excited about the offensive depth this team has. Jay Cutler has had time to heal, get his mind and personal life in order, and has a weapon and a quarterback's coach he's familiar with. Plus there's an actual veteran NFL quarterback right Cutler…

Sebastian Bach - In Your Face at Cubby Bear North
Written by Charles Maj

Sebastian was “Bach” in town Saturday May 12th at Cubby Bear North Lincolnshire where he played an up close and personal show. This was my fourth time seeing Sebastian Bach live (1989, 1991, 1992 and 2012) and, without question, the former Skid Row frontman is still on top of his game. At 44 you would think he would have lost a step but, not the case - he was just as powerful Saturday as he was in 1989. The only thing that may have changed is the size of the crowds from 20,000 to a few hundred, which allows…

Resilient Bulls Live to Fight Another Day; Take Game 5 from ‘Sixers at the UC
Written by Shawn Foss

For much of the 2011-12 NBA season, the Bulls have been in the driver’s seat in the Eastern Conference. Despite injuries to just about every member of the team at some point this season, the Bulls were in 1st place pretty much from wire to wire. Coach Tom Thibodeau often talked about his team playing with an edge, and Joakim Noah has said that he loves how desperate the Bulls play, but realistically, the Bulls haven’t had any actual pressure. They have spent all season trying to manufacture motivation, to find reasons to play with that edge and find…
