10 things i learned in chicago

August 6th, 2008

most of you know that i went to the lollapalooza music festival in chicago last weekend.  i had an amazing time, and would love to share my experience with all of you! however, right now i’m sifting through 600+ photos as well as catching up with my real work, so you’ll just have to hang tight for the full recap. for right now, i’d like to give you my 10 things i learned in chicago:

10. there is a reason that a giordano’s pizza takes more than 45 minutes to make…oh and it’s worth it!

9. it is better to sleep on the floor of someone else’s hotel room than in the chicago jail

8. if a homeless man asks you to sign his chicken basket, just do it

7. contrary to popular belief, kyle gass and jack black do not always travel together

6. if you get too close to rage, you will get smushed…and you may lose a toenail

5. there is nothing that jack white can’t do (and he always looks good doing it)

4. if you go to billy goat’s tavern, you’re getting the double cheese…no arguments.

3. traveling with good people will make all the difference in the world

2. radiohead+fireworks=amazing

1. no matter what i do, or the new adventures i take, nothing ever moves me like music…and live music at that.
