Chicago may have rainy weather but there are tons of things to keep you busy including music festivals, art galleries, and scooter rides. If you’re lucky enough to know someone who goes to DePaul University, hopefully you can con them into buying you a ticket to their end of the year FEST featuring N.E.R.D, HelloGoodbye and the night time act of the awesome Chicago hometown heroes Flosstrodamas. TNG Chicago Editor Adam will be there so don’t be scared to say hi.
