Cool. When you PM'd me today I was going to ask, "so when are we going to catch some live music again?"

I don't think I still have your phone number... I'll be there with my girlfriend and a friend of mine from NYC who's flying in.

Looking forward to it.

Yeah, BB and I just decided today to hit this festival. We're flying in Friday for the Saturday set. Hopefully we won't have to stand outside the venue for 4 hours trying to get in like the Arcade Fire show ;). We'll have to try to hook up for this one.

Definitely. I'm hoping the weather will be relatively cool and the dust from the baseball field at Union Park doesn't get to crazy like it did for the Intonation Fest last year. I just did roasting hot and dusty at Bonnaroo, and I'm not wanting to go through that again so soon.

How about an unofficial roll call? Who's going to be around? DMB, a little birdie told me that you're going to be there on Saturday. Shall we deem this Sparks day? I could be down for an orange mouth.

I was going to try to go, but the 826 benefit popped up, aloong with some other stuff...

If I knew y'all were going to be drinking Sparks, though, I would've booked a ticket a while ago...

I may be---I've got a ticket. I'm not due into town until 8p.m. though, so it may be dicey. I'm also trying to convince bitterbuffalo to go.

If this is any consolation, a couple of friends went to the same show as Saint and thought they were good.

Me and Mr. Shoegaze are going out to dinner on Friday before the Metro pre-Pitchfork show. If anyone would like to join us, give me a holler. No restaurant has been chosen, but it'll be casual and on the north side of Chicago.

See Jasmine, I told you Dave was cool.

I have plans with the gf's parent's for dinner, but am up for post-dinner drinks. Is everyone going to the show at the Metro? Maybe I should buy some tix. One of my favorite bars I've been to in Chicago, Gingerman, is next door to Metro.

So far, I know of these folks joining the festivities:

Dave
Jasmine
Z
Stu + gf + Wes (friend from NYC) + his friend
Mike (DreadedMarco)
BitterBuffalo

Anyone else I'm missing?

I'm totally up for brunch, but it's gonna be a last minute call since I'm staying with Kate's parents. Maybe I can break away for a bit so they can hang. You PM'd me your number right?
