Yeah, it's as bad as you expected.

The former Crobar in Chicago will remain shuttered for less than one week before reopening as a tacky mainstream joint called The Vibe. The new club's "urban" theme appears to be a code word for "dumping as much cheese and douche in one room as possible".

Here's a copy of the flyer for The Vibe's "launch party" - just 6 days after Crobar's closing party.

Prominently displayed is "Natalie 'I Run LA' Nunn from Oxygen's Hit TV Show Bad Girl's Club", who is hosting what is sure to be a night filled with more fist-bumps than anywhere west of Jersey. I'm not sure if this is a step up or a step down from wheeling out Dennis Rodman in his walker - we're talking degrees of tackyness here - but it's... different.

Apparently she's an amazing DJ as there's no other music information listed.

And good luck to the owners - apparently most of the staff has long since been let go.
