ANYTHING GOES

I'm reading a fun book, "Anything Goes" by Lucy Moore.  It's a biography of the Roaring 20's with a lot of Chicago history.  One thing I found hard to even imagine was that, by the mid-20's, Chicago had over 10,000 bars and nightclubs with live music.  It's probably just as well I missed that era.  I'm not sure I could have survived it.
