Chicago Visit

[blues.bass]

Hi guys,
I'm going to be visiting Chicago for 3 or 4 days in April 2011.
I'm a massive Chicago blues fan, so I'll certainly be going to be to 2120 South Michigan and the Blues Heaven foundation.

But, any advice on where to go and what to see, any tours that our better than others (and what to avoid)?
Any clubs that play the 'real deal', not the watered down tourist blues that I heard is in a lot of places?

Being form little ol' New Zealand, any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers
