What an awesome show! The set list was amazing. For the encore they had the Chicago Orchestra come out and accompany the band, who were dressed in tuxedos. Jim had on some sweet, knee-high, zebra print boots, fucking crazy! Saw quite a few PJ shirts, a blue avocado guy, and the dark green w/ the eagle on it.

    That's cool. As soon as I heard they were the opener I dug deep into their catalouge.

    Lucky! Where are they playing? I saw them 5x this year, but always in a big venue or outdoors...I think they'd be so much better in a smaller setting.

    Hey, how was AIC? What did you think of the new guy?

    I saw 'em in Dallas and Austin last weekend. It was nothing short of amazing, especially considering I hadn't seen a full show where they were the headliners in 2 years. They were well worth the 800 miles put on my truck.
