Just as he has done for over 66 years, Segal greets the audience with a thank you, as he takes the cover charge.

Coup d'état is an intimate lounge and live-venue. More than a nightclub, Coup d'état is quite literally a blow against the current state of lounge and nightlife culture in Chicago. Comfortable, chic and most definitely sexy, it combines rustic charm and modern design. Primitive futurism maybe? Yes it looks good in magazines, but it feels even better. It's the perfect spot to relax, sip a well made cocktail and chill with friends. Cozy up to the bar or lounge on a banquette. You know how certain records just make you feel sexy? The right room has the same power.
