I uploaded it off my iPhone in the hotel on Thursday night after a "few" cocktails :O) Sorry for the shaky cam.

But for anyone that experienced or heard about the lines for the stands in Chicago...

(If anyone on the board is in the video, would be cool to know that I ran past you :D )

    Yep I'm in there :) near the statue.

    How weird?!

    Waited about 3 1/2 hours total. Was worth it as I had to meet people for tickets anyhow.

    Great time, but fucking hot!

    I was standing by the statue in the first line, too. White shirt and green backpack with the grey and black PJ 2013 hat. This was right before I learned they were sold out of the posters! :o

    Thanks smanchac1 and front spacer for replying.

    I guess it would help to mention the time frame :)
    The video was from Thursday afternoon between 3:00 and 4:00.

    FWIW....any advertising you may see is because of the music, not me. I had to acknowledge that the music was a PJ track. One of the reasons I just now got around to posting it.

    Look at all the crazy fuckers ;) That would be us at the 1:36 mark. I'm in the orange JAA shirt :D
    Five hours we waited but became one of our favorite memories of the week.
    Thanks so much for posting!!!

    I just saw myself in line 2 @ 1:11. We waited for 5 hours. Never would have dreamed of waiting that long but once I waited over 2 hours I was fully committed to be there until the end. The guy next to me with a beard waited for 4 hours but finally needed to leave to get to work. We took turns getting water across the street at the 7 11. Ended up greeting a Cracker Jack poster and 2 packs of cards.

    I got in line around 830ish after my flight landed. I was third in line by the red trailer. I had been up since 2am since I drove from Toronto buffalo. Waited in line for 3.5 hours or so

    That was the way to go. You waited in line less time, probably got everything you wanted and weren't in the worst of the heat. I was mad I missed the sound check by an hour

    We got in line #2 a little before 2:00, deep in the Captain Morgan bar. Around 3 or 4, we were still deep inside zig-zagging our way through the tables on the patio. Searched, but can't find us in the video, but I know we are there. Finally got to the front a bit after 7:00! Met some great people in line! Still can't believe we were in line for 5+ hours, man it was hot! :lol:

    I'd be just around the corner in the home stretch to the trailer!

    Remember them setting up that canopy for the artists. Small secondary line was forming to the left for the NO GUARANTEE posters would be restocked group. Snagged a Schuss about 1/2 hour later for the effort!

    Thanks for the post. Easy to watch from my air conditioned basement with beer in hand!

    I am in the line about :40 in....They restocked the Shuss poster about a half hour after this video was taken...the wait was worth it, met some cool people in line.

    Where at by the statue?

    I found my friend and I at the :28 mark of the video next to the statue to. I'm in the green JAA shirt texting our friends who were over at the Cubby Bear having a few drinks. My friend is the one leaning on the statue who stands up just as the camera goes by.

    Wow, was it hot that day! We met a lot of cool people in that line & the one the next day.

    You guys are crazy! I got off the train about 1:30pm, saw that line and said "f*ck that!". If I was going to wait 5 hours for something a poster or t-shirt was not going to be at the end of that line (wink wink). I got some merch when I got in later that I'm happy with. My wife and I found a cool place down the street and grabbed some beers and some awesome Chicago dogs, went back to the hotel, had a nice swim and a nap before the show (which it turns out I was glad we did). A memorable day, to say the least. :)
