UR Chicago

UR Chicago is an online magazine covering regional and national lifestyles and entertainment. It was a print magazine between 1997 and 2008.

History and profile

Founded in 1997, UR Chicago was published by Pure Entertainment Group.[1] The magazine was then sold to En Prise Entertainment, LLP, a Chicago-based artist management/event promotion company owned by local tastemakers Chess Hubbard and Matt DuFour.[1] It was published on a monthly basis.[2]

The magazine was free of charge when it was a print publication and focused on nightlife, music, theater, art, film, dining, and fashion, focusing mainly on the Chicago area.[2] It also offered in-depth feature reporting. In September 2008 it became a web-only magazine.[1]

gollark: Is that a *bad* thing now, not using them where it's reasonably practical?
gollark: I partly agree with them, but I think it is a bit ridiculous to not just... do the necessary stuff to take packet captures on Linux, use Zoom in a comparatively safe way via a browser so it has very limited access, and run the browser thingy in a VM.
gollark: They seem excessively something.
gollark: If someone has a somewhat unconventional computer setup, that means they are a deviant and obviously must be punished.
gollark: Hmm. You can probably passthrough USB devices, or "passthrough" fake ones.
