I do not have tickets to the shows, but would consider coming to Chicago just for this picnic
My friend Milton has been waiting for years, since Alpine, for our next tailgate/picnic. He has built, with his bare hands, a HUGE grill, that is just pretty damned amazing. Its too bad I have no clue how to post a pic here, you would be impressed. This is actually going to be pretty simple to organize, since Milton has already done most of the hard work. All I have to do is find a location, and that's really no big deal. Like Alpine, I realize everyone will be traveling in for the show, so coolers, blankets, etc. wont be an option for some. But you know me. Myself, QuarterToTen, and Milton will have enough food to feed 50 people, just like we did at Alpine. All the food that everyone else brings is a bonus. We should be able to have enough coolers to keep beer and food on ice. WE will make it work. Alpine was a success, and I am pretty sure we can make it happen all over again.
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
The SPEEDYPALOOZA PICNIC is a GO! Our chef from ALPINE, my friend Milton, has the grills, the 3500 watt generator, the music system, and the trailer to get all our supplies packed, good to go! Obviously I need to get the location taken care of, but that will be taken care of.
That Sunday we will PARTY!
When do tickets go on sale for SPEEDYPALOOZA PICNIC?? I just want to know when to start F5-ing...

I saw Miami & MSG1 - frankly, I thought Miami was even better than MSG1. Going to both Wrigley shows, and strongly considering going to Boston as well...
or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who can forgive yourself oh yeah... makes much more sense to live in the present tense...
If my Derby horse wins today? I will be booking my Boston trip this evening.
Ha
SWEET! Tickets aren't horribly expensive for Fenway as even they were for MSG1. Why not enjoy the fine city of Boston on a hot August evening listening to the boys jam out for a few hours?

Yeah, I really liked that Miami setlist. Heard good things about the show. Something about MSG1, the set and show flowed so well and the band sounded great. Def on top of their game. See you at the Friendly Confines.
