“Belushi’s is filled with magic: those special and intimate moments of recognition between the performer and the audience that only a live show provides,” Belushi says. The venue is a cozy joint, lined with Chicago red brick with never before seen memorabilia from Jim’s, Dan Aykroyd’s and John’s wife Judy’s personal collections, like the original ’45 from John’s first band in high school, “The Ravens”. Other exclusive items include, both backstage and production photos from SNL and The Blues Brothers, as well as the original model of the infamous “Bluesmobile”, used in the film’s iconic chase scene.
