"Legendary half-century-old drag club and bar Baton Show Lounge is leaving River North for Uptown. The owner of the venue, which has been open since 1969 at 436 N. Clark Street, told Block Club that escalating rents forced the move to the former Uptown Underground space at 4707 N. Broadway Street." - Daniel Gerzina
