Not to steal any thunder from that amazing set last night in Albany or from Hartford tonight....but CHICAGO I IS IN 3 DAYS!!!
Checked ticketbastard and it seems that only seats left for Chicago I and II are behind the stage so it looks like it will be a nice full crowd. The crowd in Chicago in 03 was fantastic so I can only imagine what the energy will be like this time around.
DAMN, I am excited!

    Come on, there has to be more excited Chicago people on here! Hell, I am even excited to watch a Cubs game on TV just so I can see Eddie sing "Take Me Out.." tomorrow!
    Setlist is not extremely important to me, but I do sort of have my heart set on hearing Comatose. That song has just captured me. Can't seem to make it pass track 3 on the album!

    I was in Iraq during the last tour, so I am definitely psyched about being at the United Center on Tuesday.

    Plus, I'm a Bulls fan and I've never been to the UC before!
  • kobayashi_77kobayashi_77 Posts: 56
    Glad you're back safe Dark Grin. The UC is always rocking and as a huge Bulls and Blackhawks fan growing up, it is definitely special hearing the music and sounds of thousands of fellow jammers echoing off that ceiling encircled by all those banners. So f'n excited!!

    To be honest, I have never got one before, but would really like to get one this time. Still trying to figure out the timing of where to park, when to get tickets, when to swing by the pre-party, and when to head to the show to get a poster.
    Any ideas from you Chicago folks on parking?

    Im SOOOOOOOO ready for Tuesday to get here. Hopefully we will get a great LOOONG show. Im coming by myself this time as looking for people to party with before and after the show. I will be at the pre and post party also....If anyone has a chair, floor or maybe even a shed i can crash in it would be most appreciated, I have to be at ohare the next evening to pick up family from the airport or i would be doing both shows.

    Definitely hitting the pre-party for Tuesday once the g/f and I get into town and checked in at the hotel. Would offer a floor, but first thing resembling a vacation we have had in a while and DTE does crazy things to her. Not sure what's up with Wednesday but hopefully both nights will include a killer set and great crowd.

    Rather than being birthed like a normal child, Chuck Norris instead
    decided to punch his way out of his mother's womb. Shortly thereafter
    he grew a beard.

    Parking is FREE at the pre-party location, check the CCFA sticky for the specific Chicago thread..all of the info is listed.

    Moretti's on Jackson is close to the venue and with thousands of people moving around, the area will be safe. :)

    I cannot wait for two KILLER shows!!! All I have been hearing is how good the new stuff sounds live and if it's half as good as the webcast of the Letterman set we are in for some SERIOUS rockin' good times!!!

    i'm right there with you, buddy
    ~I'd list my shows here, but I've long since lost count~
  • kobayashi_77kobayashi_77 Posts: 56
    Ok, after seeing that set list...I don't think I can sleep tonight, or possibly at all until Tuesday night!
    I was seriously dreaming of Comatose/DTE, back-to-back! Two of my favorite hard rock PJ songs in a row, I can only dream of a repeat now for Chicago now.
