It`s one of the best festivals in Chicago:):)

Sounds like fun!
Hope to meet some pf people there!

Yes! Let's plan on it! Long live the TOP. :)

you have fun guys :) i'll be thinking about you :)

Oh, pgt...can't you make it?

to be honest, i was about to book an airplane ticket, but i can't do that because of other obligations... i'm sure i'll miss a great fun with you guys...

You'll miss all the beer and all the shows on the stages (if you are able to still see them ) :)
Not to mention all the food!

Eurola, you don't want to make me cry, do you?
;)

Oh, nooo! Please don't cry. I'd join you quickly and i don't want to.
I just thought you could you use some entertainment in Chicago.. :)

I drove past there the other day and they have been doing alot of remodeling.
New sign, painting..etc...
All I know the place is going to be packed, I can see myself at the Okocim tent already:)


Its still not to late:):):)

Yes Polishtexasgirl from Texas! You can still make it!

It will never be the same without Maly Wladziu.. He was the greatest.

"Taste of Polonium" would be a great name for a sushi restaurant at Picadilly Circus, London... you'd attrract plenty of Russians ;D

Crap jokes aside, it sounds like a good gig!

i wanna pull your pony tails for that...hehe

Good to see you laughing and not crying :)

it's a laughing part of a day... hehe..

I want to see Milano boys, they play Friday night.
I know, I know, I like Disco polo, whatcha gonna do...?

5 minutes away from me.
chances are i wont be able to make it because ill be shooting a fireworks show that whole weekend (3 days)

Where you shooting it? We might go to the pier Saturday.

Sunday night will be the best show.

OOh, I like LOVERBOY!!! Maybe I'll go to that instaed....Hmmmmm

hmm.. i thought you were coming up for this one, :(

these are not big budget shows, but they are good though.
i guess what im getting at is that dont expect a big 4th of july show.
sunday nite has the biggest budget.
none of the shows will go for longer than 15 minutes.

I was there the past 2 years, what are you talking about??????

i was told not to surpass 15 minutes per sponsors request for this year. (im sure that will change). the sunday nite program really needs about 18 minutes, i dont like to shoot shells on top of each other.

last years saturday nite show went almost 13 minutes, sunday was about 18-19 minutes and monday was around 15-16 minutes.
there was a really bad accident there last year with kids racing.
some people sitting on the sidewalk got hit by the mustang that lost control.

I`m sorry man, I read it wrong..duh
15 mins isn`t bad at all, thats about all Navy Pier gives you on Wednesdays?


I wasnt around when that happened but I can believe it, there always racing on and off the highway in that neighborhood.
I`m sure theres going to be alot of cops this year.

something like that.
i tired uploading pictures of last years behind the scenes pics(set up) but the damm pictures are too big

Where is everybody and why aren't they signing up for the taste of Polonia?
Did anybody hear from Ranj, I have not seen her for a while on PF...
Ranj, where are you?
I plan on being there! Krysia, let's do some disco polo dance! hehehehe.

Hi eurola

I might be there...

Where and when is this?
