What in the butt? Awesome.
"Unfortunately, it appears that we were erroneous in this analysis as well," he added. "Even minor fender-benders seem to cause motorists wearing neckbelts to have their entire heads forcibly ripped from their torsos, landing in the front seat to the shocked screams of terrified onlookers."
my brother and i bought our mom a Metallica "Metal Up Your Ass Shirt" for her birthday (or easter) when we were like 12. she literally started crying at what her sons had become, then she proceeded to cut the shirt up right in front of us. it was brilliant and sad.
Well if heroin was in their rider, they were well within their rights to refuse to perform. That would be awesome if a band put illegal drugs in their rider, though it would render that part of the contract unenforceable. Can't contract to break the law.
who is responsible for booking a show like this? is it the city of chicago? do they have it contracted out to Metro or someone? for the most part it seems like these shows cater to "our" musical interests... do they have pop bands or more main-stream bands play different days as well? how many people can pritzker host with the pavilion and lawn?

Yeah this was awesome. Made me think "THIS is why I live in Chicago."
My favorite part was during "The End of Radio" when Albini apologized to the space aliens 10,000 years in the future for Mancow. I think that really needed to be said.
