Hey everyone!!! Blind Melon will be playing and signing autographs at Best Buy before the show. I guess it is on N. Clark St. Unfortunately I have Cubs tickets for that same time so I won't be able to make it. Just thought I would let everyone know!

aww shit. I might have to go to the Cubs game late. It starts at 2:20 and the acoustic performance starts at 2 a mile down the road. Tough decision...Definitely gonna have to go to the performance!

Really awesome show last night. The energy of the crowd was through the roof. It reminded me of the Double Door show.
The two Chicago shows I went to had waaaay better crowd energy than the Milwaukee show.

I was there last night as well and it kicked some serious butt! mygalaxie-I know you don't know who I am, but I was about four people to the left of you...saw you give Travis the kazoo, awesome! I'm also the one that the soundguy gave the setlist to right at the end! I really was hoping Glen would give me his, it would have been the third time...aww, 3, it's the magic number...but I guess I shouldn't be so greedy I actually gave the setlist to one of my peeps I was with, so I'm really not that greedy. Of course if Glen had given it to me I would've been selfish and kept it This was my third show and I have no complaints, I think they've all been outstanding! Okay, one small complaint...I am also a front row fanatic and that's where I was, but there was a barrier between us and the stage....I like to be right up there! BRANDY!! Jimmy and Kiwi were right behind me and so cool. I love your son! I asked him why he wasn't wearing his fork necklace, the one of a kind flip off? He had one on just like one you've made for me, the peace sign. He proceeds to take that one off and hand it to me, I let one of the girls I brought with me have it since I already have it. These girls I brought with me are 18, thrilled to be able to get into a Melon show finally! They are true Melonheads. They had the best time!! We didn't get home until 4:00 this morning and they had school, not to mention it was senior awards day! Oh yes, and they thought Jimmy was hot! Pass it on. After the show we took a few minutes to stop by the bus and see if anyone was around. Travis was and we all got hugs. My camera took a crap at the show so no pics.....

Mario! I didn't get a chance to chat with you at the show, although I did catch a few glimpses of you, and I knew that beautiful Galaxie had to be around. Passed you going the opposite direction as we were leaving, loved the back window! Sweet! Wish we could've hung out more. At least I have this from Vigil last year! Glad you have a dependable camera...gonna go check those out now! Thanks!!
