The city's heinous independent-promoter ordinance may be offline at the moment, but it comes from the mayor's office, and the mayor doesn't take defeat so well--meaning (like I've already said) that we shouldn't be surprised when it pulls a Jason Voorhees and comes back from the dead yet again.

The Chicago Music Commission is already preparing for that to happen. Right now they're collecting public comments on the ordinance to use against it the next time it comes up. Considering that the City Council has previously announced the votes on this measure only a few days in advance, it might pay to get things rolling before the next surprise.
