Chicago

I know it's boring to blog about the weather, but that's really the main theme today. 4-5 inches of snow on the ground when we woke up in Milwaukee. If this happened in Portland, the city would shut down and everyone would stay hunkered in watching Matt Zefino. The 90 mile drive to Chicago took 4 hours, which was annoying, but we were entertained for the last bit of it by the most perfectly hilarious college radio DJ on some left-of-the-dial station. Long stretches of dead air? Check! Songs played at the wrong speed? Check! Mumbled apologies for forgetting to play PSAs? Check! I was glad to see things haven't changed since the "When you play it, say it!" 80's.
Might play Vanessa and it Kills tonight. Both sounded pretty good at soundcheck, as did the Social D cover, but that one's probably a few drunken encores away.
