Cheap Trick

Ravinia Festival
Sunday, September 3rd

Both guys are huge fans and I think it's time to expose them to the live rock experience.

It's a pretty post, outdoor venue in a residential neighborhood of an upscale Chicago suburb. So it never gets too damn loud (although we will bring earplugs for the guys anyway). And we can picnic on the lawn. Might even be able to get backstage, since my dad (and I) worked there on occasion (with the Teamsters).

Damn, I am looking forward to this!

That seems like a really good choice.

You know, i was just biking through Lincoln Park a couple days ago to bike along the lake, and The Gin Blossoms are playing at the zoo. I immediately thought to myself, Todd could kill two birds with one stone.

We were thinking about seeing They Might Be Giants there.

Make sure and prewarn your boy that tossing picks is not a part of his guitar playing education and is furthermore moronic and hackneyed.

And if you get backstage, tell Rick Neilsen the same thing.
