Yeah, that would have probably been a good idea. I did have to go on a sudden trip to California for family obligations (from Thursday - Saturday last week), though, so it probably wouldn't have mattered.
However, I do live in Buffalo Grove when I'm not at college, and I'll be coming back for Winter Break (December 13 - January 21). I will be taking a trip with my parents in late December, but if you (or any other Chicagoans on BemaniStyle) want to have a large meetup at a local arcade, that would be very cool!
The only places I know people still go from BMS is...well...actually not many. I actually don't know a lot of Chicagoans on BMS (most around Chicago are either mall kiddies or kids that play ITG and stick around like ITGFreak or DDRFreak).
The people I know that play other Bemani don't post often or we just meet at someone's place...at most Gameworks (mmm...cheap SuperNOVA).
latin kings tagged on my garage again. i'm going to stab those fuckers
played iidx for the first time in like two months today, way the hell rusty. probobly won't play again until 12th comes out. i forgot bemani existed. i was trashed the other night and played guitar hero for the first time, i beat like ever hard song or whatever, with my shirt off
You don't know you can pass a song until you fail it.

I heard Brunzwick Zone in Naperville is getting an IIDX machine this month, can someone confirm this?
If they're run like the Brunswick Zone XL in Romeoville, don't hold your breath. When I worked there a while back (the one in Romeoville that is), a co worker told me they were 'definitely' getting a Beatmania machine, hinting that it could be a IIDX RED (this was a while back though), of course it's been several months and still no beatmania, as far as I know. Then again he was probably full of shit about it. *shrugs*
