@Misskaz and Bryan, there's a deeply dope concert for free at Millenium park tonight, at the Pritzker Pavillion. 6:30pm
Beer was pretty terrible. Heineken (regular + Light + "Dark" and Newcastle). Actually the Heineken Dark wasn't bad; it was my beer of choice throughout the weekend. The bike parking was totally fine, I think part of it was that the rain kept some folks off their bikes but also that they had two lots this year helped. The lot I parked in never got close to full.
I so want to go to Charles Bradley tonight. My work friend is going. I have a programming class I'm taking that is Mondays at 6:30 though. I didn't do the homework this weeks so I am considering skipping it, but because I have to bring my computer to this class I didn't ride my bike today. If I had ridden my bike, I would probably skip class and go to Charles Bradley. It's amazing how much easier it is to get around with a bike!!!
I had tix for Hideout Block Party last year and didn't end up going. This year sounds ok - I like Wilco and Iron & Wine and Wye Oak. But, we'll see. I just spent $100 on Pitchfork and I'm doing Riot Fest in September. This year is becoming Year of the Music Fest for me.
