Its like the yoots who missed out on the 60's hippie / greatful dead scene have found a home. The city let the fans setup a "Shakedown" street outside the venue where "vendors" sell food, beer, shirts, rocks ("crystals" to the faithful), smoking utensils, etc. Quite surprised the city ok'd that. >>> >>>Did your son go with you?
At the risk of entering family-vacation-pictures land, hoodlum #1 finally recorded some noodling. They have a new gig lined up at a boardwalk bar in a few weeks. I can get you tickets ;) Robin Trower was fantastic. I highly recommend the show if he hits Chicago.
