MODINE MOMENTS
Actor Matthew Modine hits town Thursday to headline a couple of events. The actor, known for such iconic 1980s films like "Full Metal Jacket" and "Married to the Mob," will attend a kickoff party at the Chicago Spire Design Gallery for Macy's upcoming "Glamorama" annual fashion fete, which this year toasts the best of '80s design. ... Modine, who appeared at the Goodman in 2004 in Arthur Miller's final play, "Finishing the Picture" -- also will be the guest of honor later that evening at special party for Michigan Avenue magazine at Luxbar.
• The actor will be looking to promote his "Bicycle for a Day" charity in Chicago for a possible launch here next year. BFAD is a global initiative to encourage people to ride a bike instead of using a gas-powered vehicle.
Modine is banking on the huge Chicago bicycling community to provide a base for his event.
