Well, I definitely took a bit of a hiatus these last few days, but everyone needs one sometimes. I don't feel like giving a huge report but I will give you a nice little rundown. Friday I went to Chicago for the third time in a week to see the Push Stars. They played a great set with a lot more new stuff than they did last time. I enjoyed it. I also spent some more time with Kara's sister Holly. She's always fun to hang out with. I had lunch with mom in the morning, got my car washed and came back to Madtown. This weekend was WSUM's Party in the Park. Lots of bands and DJs and a whole bunch of people. It was a blast and I got to see the White Stripes, who are one of the rockingist bands I have ever seen in my life. I always liked them but seeing them live increased my appreciation tenfold. Then at night I went to, yes, another concert. I saw the Flying Luttenbachers, Cheer Accident and a trio of Chicago jazz improv musicians. To the casual listener this was probably frightening, but I just thought this was one of the most fun shows I had ever been to. I had never seen the Flying Luttenbachers and they were amazing to see. I would go into intense detail but I don't feel like it right now. I am going to watch Double Jeopardy right now.
