I can guarantee you no one would be more surprised by that estimation than the man who runs their label. I can ask him next time he brings wood and a couch over to my house, like he did yesterday.

Places like Milwaukee, or especially Green Bay, seem to have all the bad shit that comes with city living (traffic, lack of nature, crime, etc.) without the perks (namely accessibilty to all things at all times and decent public trans.). Said perks are what make Chicago a superior place to live, in my opinion.
edit: realized you were talking about the school

This Minotaur person must be talking about a different Milwaukee than the one I'm used to. That said, there's not much to be said about either town. They're just a series of dwellings and business, with humans scattered about. The deciding factor is that Milwaukee is in Wisconsin, which is obviously superior to Illinois. I mean, all the FIBs come up here on their vacations to catch and keep fish that are too small and jam up our highways with their luxury vehicles.
As for bands, Chicago has a couple good ones. And lots of bad ones. Milwaukee has a couple good ones. And lots of bad ones. Never heard the Box Social, but I'm sure I wouldn't like them. Madison doesn't have much recently. Blah blah blah.

You might not be right...or wrong...but I can't think of a more neutral, obvious, and non-descriptive, flake out answer. You are a moron until proven innocent.

Hold up, there are *cities* in Wisconsin? I thought it was just an endless series of lakes, campgrounds, cottages, boat landings and bait stores.
I'm going to have to pull over my luxury vehicle and have a look. Which campground is Milwaukee near?

Outside of Milwaukee, no, there aren't. Though there are stories of
the Lost City of Fuckitalia. A myth, more than likely.

You joke, but it's true! The bait stores usually sell ice cream, too.

They definitely sell beer too. Lots and lots of beer.
Just to be clear I'm talking about the rural one stop shops.
An actual tackle store/bait shop probably doesn't have a liquor license, although it would probably make a good business model.
