GB Last Ditch Valentine's Get-together

Come hang with the staff of Gapers' Block at Danny's, 1951 W. Dickens (just east of Damen) in Bucktown, tonight at 8:30 'til late. We'll be all the way in the back -- look for people resembling these mugshots.

Meet cool people, flirt with that cute one over there, get his or her number, go out on a date and fall in love. And you can say it was all because of GB!
