Schadenfreude's Justin Kaufman dons the hard hat and Andy Sipowicz short-sleeved work shirt of his alter ego, Ald. Ed Bus, one more time before we ring in 2015 in a fun-filled extravaganza at Hideout (aka "The Alderman Ed Bus Chophouse) 6:30 p.m. tonight.

You never know who's going to show up at these things. Tonight's guests include DNAInfo Chicago's Mark Konkol, comedian Jamie Campbell, 1st Ward aldermanic candidate Ronda Locke and 2nd Ward candidate Steve Niketopoulos. Bring precinct captains, sawhorses to claim dibs outside Hideout and enjoy. Admission is $10 or tell the doorman you were supposed to be on the list.; it might work. (1354 W. Wabansia)
