"Carol’s Pub, a venerable country dive bar in Uptown Chicago, is set to reopen under new ownership. The bar, which closed in September 2016 after a revoked liquor license, was known for live music, whisky, and cheap domestic beers. New owner Ed Warm, who also owns Joe’s on Weed Street, is planning to revive the bar while maintaining its honky tonk feel. Patrons and long-time band Diamondback are eagerly anticipating the reopening, although regulatory hurdles remain." - Ashok Selvam
