Lighting fixtures finally going in. Unsure if I ever talked about this but we ended up slamming 3 separate twelve foot poles in the ground outside, wired electrical outlets to them, and will at last put cute goosenecks atop each one. Stoked. 💡

Hey, thanks! Glad you're enjoying it. I'll be happy I kept the logs later / already am glad I did it.

Bar lighting near dusk. I am so fucking excited to furnish this basement. Any Chicago heads know if this "Great American Pinball" company is sound? lotsa goodies in there. Where can I get Mortal Kombat 2 / TMNT OG machines? Want. Need.

I've refrained from saying this a lot or even getting madly excited. Even though we are very close, I don't think it's gonna fully hit until all the rugs are placed, furniture set, things are styled, and UDC dwelling permit is approved. There has simply been too many things that could still go terribly wrong. Skirted having to almost tear out the entire damn staircase do to spacial / clearance fuck-ups. Phew! Big one, averted nicely.

That being said, the island is set, floors are finished excellently, so LFG. Final stretch.

Apologies if this was covered earlier in this thread.

Looking incredible…
I told Steve I will only do a thing if Shellac headlines each one. He said something like "we've played dumber places" haha. So, we shall see!

The bar is officially open, and I am officially and crushingly hung over. LFG.

Your composure is remarkable but is outstripped by how amazing this place looks.
