in which chicago is hot and rocks
was in chicago for a brief visit, supposedly assisting califone during the intonation festival at the MCA. it was good to be back, but i felt like missed seeing a lot of people.
mary had a nice birthday, we saw jim becker play twice and joe adamik play three times, hung out with a sick shiela, windish for a good bit and at at the wishbone twice!
as for the MCA, well, sadly it was just WAY too bright in the tent to do visuals, which was really unfortunate given the subject was the intersection of art and rock. aside from making me feel bad for not buying those prints from richard kern some years back (has it been 15 years already and if so how old does that make marilyn manson?), it was an okay show.
interestingly, whilst i was complaining of the heat (it was hot, like, sweaty hot in a way I haven't experienced in years) apparently the were canceling the chicago marathon because people were falling over left and right.
poster kids were early, but good (sadly I didn't see all of the show), califone started rough but got much better, flostradamus was pretty entertaining, but we had to leave early, and of course the eternals were great live. i really like wayne and damon - good peeps, good roots, good rockers.
