Here in east central Illinois we're on the eastern edge of the General American accent region, which makes it easy to slide the accent south and east as needed. Unless you've spent time with northerners, it's more difficult to slide the accent north & get a good honking Chicago sound. My freshman year at the University of Illinois was spend around guys from the Chicago suburbs and I came out of it with an outrageous Chicago accent.
