Chicago

I dont get why they hate Chicago so much. I know alpine is close, but come on. I do not understand how Ohio gets 3 shows and all we get is Alpine again. Alpine is fun, but its a trek and a whole ordeal. Would be nice to take the red line the to a show on the lake again.

    Re: Chicago

    There are no good venues in Chicago for them to play. The World/Tweeter/Whatever the fuck it's called now, is awful. Northerly Island is nice but the lawn is fucking awful! Chicago Theater is way to small. Wrigley sucks for concerts. Soldiers Field is the same. I totally understand why they don't play here.

    And trust me...I live on the south side...if love a quick and easy Chicago show/weekend.

    I think the worst part of the Ohio run is how the dates are spread out. Not only do they get several shows in close proximity but spread throughout the tour to see varied sets.

    Eh, thems the breaks

    Bahahahaha!!!!!!!!!

    Large music venues in Chicago are horrible. NI could have been really cool, but it was a swing and miss.
