Yikes, how’s that for a six-month hiatus between posts? Let’s finish this Chicago series ASAP! LOLLAPALOOZA.

The Wilderness Politics Tour: Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness and New Politics at the Majestic Ventura Theater
I first heard of Andrew McMahon back in the Jack’s Mannequin days and that opened me up to getting into his first band, Something Corporate, as well.

If you already read about Day 1 or if you haven’t gone through that post and just want to screw convention, read on. Because we chose to have our hotel room booked for Friday and … Continue reading
