Wax Trax meant the world to me and my friends who are in the alternative music community in Chicago in the early 80s. Please preserve this iconic landmark.

The artists from around the world Jim and Dannie promoted, helped, produced, were friends with, etc. have been a part of my life since my early teens. I identified with their particular world view, and more importantly they helped me to grow up on difficult times. Their work is not only important to US and european people but worldwide, since I am Costa Rican. There are fans on every country in the world, for sure. Preserving the building as it was means a lot to us, is keeping an important part of the history alive. It is a must go place to all of us when visiting the city.

Save History! Whenever I’d go to Chicago, I’d go to a Wax Trax! The coolest record store in the universe.
