Steve Dahl and Garry Meier talk about Charleston bar and pretensious attiturde given to producer Brandon

   Steve Dahl and Garry Meier had their producer Brendan talking to them about a visit to one of Chicago's most pretensions bars this being the Charleston. Brendan told Meier and dahl how much of a fool he felt for being in this place and being the only being in a cubs or sports wear hat and obviously young Brendan knew little of the snob hob reputation of this bar in the Bucktown  region of Chicago. This snob bar encourages people to dress and act of the Sinatra era and a Wrigleyville Cub fan is not welcomed whether it is 1945 or 2016 in October. This is not the scene is all about for the Charleston and an ever increasing number of other  so bars in this city. This house bar for a century was a blue collar neighborhood tavern  and big mouth dahl went on to read about this bar on its internet site and mocks is memo and mission of bringing expensive alcohol and changing the image and outlook of this structure in an instant from its original founding as a haven for blue-collar workers that gave the city of big shoulders it image. it is a shame of changing demographics and how wealthy snobbish progressives congregate in a neighborhood and change its  character and surrounding environment from a crowd who really don't want people to look and be different than them. Meier could relate though with the dress up snobbish image as he often goes way overboard to dress up whenever he is downtown wishing to express himself with an image of self-importance when all he is just a sidekick with little to say letting dahl do ninety percent of the talking.  The Charleston bar is a cultural neighborhood landmark for what type of thing Bucktown has become and Dahl and Meier realize in the number of years of doing radio and going to bars that the economy and white collar high income professionals have drastically changed many formerly hip bars and just basically turned them into weird and neurotic establishments where sports and sports gear wear is disdained and frowned upon by these clowns running these drinking establishments catering only to a certain crowd, This is why I love working at the Itasca Inn as it is welcoming to all and only gang bang and ghetto wear would ever be looked upon with puzzlement and alarm.
