chicago / saturday / 1900
the helio sequence are just finishing a great set - went out to front of house to watch the first half. they are really fun to watch and make a really powerful sound, and i can tell by the applause that the chicago crowd enjoyed it.
went out for a wander today, and took loads of pics, but haven't had time to go through them to look for good ones, so i'll do that tonight / tomorrow.
chicago is a good town to wander around. jesse and i found some great music shops on N Lincoln Ave, but i couldn't persuade him to spend any money, despite my best efforts. we wandered past a park where there seemed to be four different kids' baseball games going on - it couldn't have been more like a film (probably where things are about to go bad - think the park scene at the start of terminator 2! or do i have a dark imagination?) anyhow, we've had a good day here, and i'm looking forward to playing. the venue is already packed out, and i can hear bittersweet symphony ringing out of the PA. next up for your listening pleasure - mat kearney. have a good saturday night, wherever you are!
