The tenth annual G-Fest will be held in Arlington Heights (just outside O'Hare and about a half mile from where I live) on Fri-Sun, July 18-20. Details can be found here:

(See my review of last year's show in the Jabootu Nuggets section under Misc.) Also, Saturday night they'll possibly be showing one of the last two Godzilla movies that haven't been seen in this country yet. There's also a dealer's room with an unholy amount of Godzilla crap for sale, although no bootleg tapes.
