DANIEL
>>SUMMERTIME MEANS GOOD
WEATHER, GOOD MUSIC, GREAT
FOOD

MORE ABOUT THE UPCOMING
BIG LICK BURGER FAST IS JD FROM
BIG LICK .
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING
ON.
THIS SOUNDS LIKE MY KIND OF
EVENT.
TELL US ABOUT THIS.>> THIS IS
THE FOURTH ANNUAL BURGER FAST.
IT IS NICE TO SEHOW IT HAS
GROWN SINCE THE FIRST ONE.
THE BEHIND-THE-SCENES MARKET
BUILDING AND IT SOLD OUT OF
EVERY SINGLE BURGER
THE FIRST
YEAR.
THIS YEAR WE WANTED TO
CELEBRATE JUST HOW GREAT OF A
VENUE ELMWOOD PARK IS.
TO DO THAT LET'S ADD REALLY
AMAZING BANDS , THEY GET A HUGE
CONCERT WITH THE CELEBRATION OF
THE BURGERS.
I THINK IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN
ABOUT PAIRING GREAT THEATER AND
FOOD AND MUSIC , IT ALL WORKS
TOGETHER.
WE HAVE 86 TO HEADLINE
THIS
YEAR.
>> IS THAT LIKE THE EAVES SIX
THAT I ?
>> YES.
>> IT IS CRAZY.
I WANT TO KNOW IT KIND OF
MOISTURIZER THIS GUY IS USING.
IT IS GOING TO BE ABSOLUTELY
AWESOME
IT IS $10 FOR FIVE
BANDS .
DOZENS OF DIFFERENT BURGER
VENDORS, A
HUGE CRAFT BEER
EXPERIENCE , LOCAL AND REGIONAL
FAVORITE BEERS
.
IT IS TRULY GOING TO BE
AWESOME.
TONS OF STUFF FOR THE KIDS.
CHILDREN ARE FREE.AND IT IS
FATHER'S
DAY WEEKEND .
THIS IS WAY COOLER THAN BUYING
A TIE.
>> IT IS AN EXPERIENCE AND
BURGERS AND FOOD AND BEER.
ARE ALL THE BURGERS LOCAL?
>> OH YES.
IT IS ALL THE BEST LOCAL FOOD
TRUCKS AND RESTAURANTS.
THERE IS A HUGE COOKOFF DURING
SERIOUS COMPETITION BETWEEN
THESE.
THERE ARE OFF-THE-WALL BURGERS,
THERE'S A ROCK 'N' ROLL DINER
THAT HAS A BURGER WITH A FRIED
EGG ON SOURDOUGH.
>> MY BURGER TRUCK IS GOING TO
BE OUT THERE WHICH WILL BE FUN.

>> FAST BURGER.
>> IT WAS REALLY GOOD.YOU ALL
ARE GOING TO BE THERE.
SO FOURTH-YEAR, I IMAGINE
THINGS ARE GROWING AND GETTING
BIGGER SO HOW DOES THIS COMPARE
TO PAST YEARS?
>> THE BIGGEST THING IS ADDING
A HUGE CONCERT THAT WE WOULD
NOT BE ABLE TO DO WITHOUT
SPONSORS AND AWESOME MEDIA
FRIENDS THAT WANT TO SUPPORT
COMMUNITY EVENTS LIKE THIS.
A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T KNOW A
MINIMUM OF 51 PERCENT OF EVERY
BIG LICK EVENT GOES TO A
NONPROFIT.
A MINIMUM.
>> DO YOU PICK THEM AHEAD OF
TIME?
>> IT IS A LONG PROCESS OF
WORKING TO CREATE SOMETHING WE
THINK IS NOT ONLY GOING TO HELP
THE ECONOMIC CLIMATE IN THE
AREA, BUT ALSO HELP THE GREAT
NONPROFITS.
THIS ONE BENEFITS COMMUNITY
SERVICES.IT HAS BEEN AROUND
FOR 60 YEARS.
THEY DO THE C11 NUMBERS OVERLY
COOL FOLKS.
WE ARE EXCITED TO WORK WITH
THEM.
>> WHY DID YOU DECIDE THIS
WOULD BE, THAT THEY WERE THE
NONPROFIHE WANTED TO GIVE TO
QUICK >> BURGER FAST STARTED AS
A FAMILY THING.
WHEN I WAS A KID WE USED TO GO
TO THE GREENWOOD RESTAURANT
FANTASTIC SPOT.
WE WOULD NEVER EVEN GET A MENU.
MY DAD WOULD JUST ORDER BURGERS
FOR EVERYBODY .
WE WOULD GET CHOCOLATE
MILKSHAKES, HOMING FRANCHISE,
THERE IS SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
ABOUT SITTING AT A TABLE AND
HAVING THE SAME THING.
SHARING A CUP OF COFFEE WITH
SOMEBODY.
IF YOU LIKE YOU COMMUNICATE
WITH THEM BETTER.
I WANTED TO CREATE AN EVENT
THAT WOULD GIVE YOU THAT SAME
FEELING WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY
AND NOTE THAT COUNSEL HELPS ALL
HIS FAMILIES IS PERFECT.
>> GIVE US THE DETAILS.
>> $10 TO GET IN.
IF YOU WANT TO GET PRESALE
TICKETS YOU CABUY THEM AT THE
BOX OFFICE.
