The Blues Brothers (cont'd.)

As they announce the upcoming show with a P.A. system mounted to the roof of their car, the Blues boys drive along "Phil's Beach" on Bangs Lake in Wauconda, IL.

Running out of time before the big show, they must make a pit-stop at "Lloyd's Tire Clinic," which was on Illinois Route 59 at Gary's Mill Road in West Chicago.

Exterior shots of the "Palace Hotel" were done at the South Shore Country Club at 7059 South Shore Drive in Chicago.

Interiors of the "Hotel Ballroom" were done at the Hollywood Palladium at 6215 Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood.

The secret underground entrance where the Blues brothers sneak into (and later escape from) the theater was a tunnel off Cannon Drive under West La Salle Drive in Lincoln Park in Chicago, which has since been replaced.
