Since everyone is doing it, figured why not? What are everyone's perception of Chicago from around the world?

I agree. Let me add good food but skyscrapers will always be synonymous with Chicago.

Kind of shocking...I thought there would be more replies. I think Chicago is a name people abroad know, but it takes a certain kind of adventurous spirit to venture into the heart of a country. But I don't think Chi-town disappoints.

I asked in my office and the response was universally, it's a city in the US.
They don't think about it at all.

I think you mean blues, specifically electric blues. When I think jazz I think New Orleans.
