Check out Wrigley Field and the Cubs (sit in the bleachers). I know that you said you might be musemed out but the Field Museum, Art Institute are fabulous. The Chicago Symphony is one of the best (if they are playing) In the evening there are several blues clubs...Saturday Night Live fans will enjoy any of the Second City shows...Billy Goat Tavern (featured in an old SNL skit No coke, Pepsi)...and a stroll down the Magnificent Mile for shopping (near water tower) is a must.
You must eat real Deep Dish Pizza (Chicago Style)...and lots of locations from the Blues Brothers/Ferris Buehler movies are must dos...
LA - don't waste your time...after the Hollywood sign and the Chinese Theater it goes down hill fast (in my opinion)...

Thanks Scott,
I have got the Field Museum and Adler on my list for Chicago anyway. Thanks for the other tips though. Actually, I hadn't even considered the Blues Brothers.
Cheers
