CHICAGO: If Hepatitis C Were Attacking Your Face Instead of Your Liver You'd Be Doing Something About It

I like "Seven" a lot, which a friend put on a mixtape for me in high school, but I've never really investigated further. (I didn't mean for that to sound negative at all.)

Also, could you tell the keyboards sounded off on stage or did someone out in the audience tell you that later?

It was the on-stage monitors. No one in the audience said anything, and we did have a couple of fans who made the drive from Chicago to see us (because they're also big J.E. fans) so it might have been totally fine out there -- but it was hugely disconcerting on stage. Also, it was a seated crowd that was there to see another band, so it was hard not to feel a little uncomfortable, anyway. I looked down a lot.

Man, I forgot about Sh4nk Hall. That place reminds me of high school (making my dad take me to see my drum teacher's band, etc.).

hey FF's

Jordan (and everyone else) -- this video has some neat drumming and wacky editing. Check it out.

friend of a friend who went through a windshield on monday is a-ok! bike is FFF-ed and she got a bunch of glass in her back, but otherwise she's totally fine. and it wasn't her fault, neither, so hopefully her bike and her trip to the ER will be covered.

driver didn't have a license, though. :-/

That's good to hear! No scarring, even?

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 19:49 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't think so!

what neighborhood was she in evan?

Hey dudes and dudettes -- was thinking about taking Kr to Gr Zebra as a treat/x-mas gift. I know it's all about small plates, but that makes it hard to calculate an average check just by looking at the menu. How many plates would you typically want to get for two people? Just want to make sure this is in my price range. And I know a couple of you jokers will probably say JUST PAY FOR HER GODDAMNED MEAL ALREADY. And I will do my best to bite my tongue, thanks.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 20:12 (seventeen years ago) link

JUST PAY FOR HER GODDAMNED MEAL ALREADY.

fulfilling my duty.

― otto midnight, that 'tofu makes you gay' ding dong (otto midnight), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 20:13 (seventeen years ago) link

I think we got 5 or 6 plates, I think. Dessert and drinks and ours was about $125 with tip.

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 20:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Tribune dude says 3 plates per person. $125, though: man alive.

just fyi

― grbchv! (gbx), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 20:19 (seventeen years ago) link

and for the love of god, john, just pay for her goddam meal already

― grbchv! (gbx), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 20:19 (seventeen years ago) link

I've heard of that place, Evan. I get confused by it, though, because Kr and I had our first date at Marrakech Expresso.

Moroccans be openin' restaurants.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 20:20 (seventeen years ago) link

What retail store?

Also: Just pay for her... etc.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 20:28 (seventeen years ago) link

See, now I don't know if you guys are being serious or not.

I was being serious, just put it that way because Otto got to ya first with the captials response.

And think of it this way: last year I spent only a little more on a nice piece of jewelry for my gf and things went to shit shortly afterward. At least this way if that happens you'll have gotten an excellent meal out of it!

he's right, you know!

I wish I had spent $$$$$ on an engagement meal. :(

I just bought two books for xmas break reading:

Boss: Richard J. Daley of Chicago by Mike Royko and Boundaries of Her Body: A Troubling History of Women's Rights in America by Debran Rowland

Those sound upset my neo-con stepfather pretty good.

Hey John, I listened to clips of the stuff mentioned on that post-rock ILM thread. Some of it I wasn't into but that Lindstrom record sounds pretty tight. The drums sound incredibly like 70's Michael Jackson!

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Argh, I copied my dad on a work e-mail. Stupid Outlook completion matching. At least he doesn't work at GE anymore (competitor, etc.)

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:11 (seventeen years ago) link

I should check out that thread.

I was just thinking about how I always seemed to get boned on reselling my books in college, so I started keeping them with the intent of using them as reference. This is how the copy of Words Into Type and similar such volumes ended up on my shelf.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

I've only heard two tracks from that record, but I like them. I don't know if I'd call it post-rock, though!

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Lindstrom is post-rock now?

Come on, ppl. Space disco!

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:13 (seventeen years ago) link

haha xpost

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I like that Lindstrom record. And it's so trendy it'll match your goddamn shoes.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:14 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't know if I'd call it post-rock, though!

I wouldn't either, but I still read about it on that thread. The thread where people were saying that they're not post-rock.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, and I just realized I had been reading one of jaxon's posts and jaymc's, i.e. why I brought it up here.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 21:22 (seventeen years ago) link

later chicago.
