DON'T
TRY THIS AT HOME;

"Day 11, part 3 (or pt. 4?) Chicago rocks and federal express
comes thru!!!"

Alright,
finally; the best show of the tour...the best audience of the tour...the
best people...the best everything! As I'd mentioned before, my pedal
board was mistakingly left in Seattle and we were worried about
it not arriving in town in time but Fed Ex brought it during soundcheck
and that made me very happy!
I had alot
of fun at the show and it was a good time hanging out n stuff...Wilco
and Coldplay were in the Audience and Nash Kato (Urge Overkill)
came backstage and chilled with us for a good while. Everyone at
the club were just 100% amazing...this was easily the funnest night
of the tour!
Tomorrow
we drive to Detroit. I guess there are about 6 USA shows left in
10 days and lots of traveling before we get home (for 3 or 4 days!)
and THEN fly to Scotland (again? weren't we JUST there?) to do Europe
and that tour ends in Athens, Greece. So, I guess, Greece IS the
world.
The hotel
we stayed in, the DAYS INN in La Salle park, was a really good one.
It wasn't fancy at all but the staff was knowledgable, helpful and
courteous. I know Dave Chapple ripped them a "new one"
in his letter...and they deserved it (in Portland), this one was
alright in my book. Also, the resteraunt downstairs, LOUIE ON THE
PARK has good Gumbo and other great food. So Chicago has been good
to us, humidity and all.
