cactusbot Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Why don't I live in Chicago? Lair of the Minotaur would be awesome to see in-store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottheisel Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Dave: Do you consider Alkaline Trio to be from Chicago anymore? Follow-up question: Do you consider them to be punk anymore? Just trying to gauge what that 3pm slot's all about... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forgeagain Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Hey I'm playing the downtown location with Three Cheers at 1! And probably missing a Blackhawks playoff game (insert shotgun suicide here). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lechevre Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 hmm, my money might be on TLA....I'm stoked on this no matter the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedavidescapeplan Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 hmm, my money might be on TLA....I'm stoked on this no matter the band. This is who I was thinking. Either way I'm going to try and make it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehoffa Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 We may or may not announce the mystery band, actually. We don't want our store to collapse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedavidescapeplan Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 How about you just tell me since I'll be making a trip from Indiana and need to know what time I should leave. When I leave depends on if I want to see this band or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xjustinxschwierx Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 We may or may not announce the mystery band, actually. We don't want our store to collapse. Damnit Dave... I'm comin to hang out with you on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedavidescapeplan Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 If you tell me I'll pay you in hugs! I just don't want to drive all the way to the city for a band I don't like and then have to wait around for six hours to go to the Canadian Rifle show.

davehoffa Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 There's plenty to do in Chicago for six hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Okay, well it's definitely not Rise Against as they're playing in Germany that night. Alkaline Trio is a possibility as Skiba's already in Chicago this week and I'm assuming the rest of the band is too, for tour rehearsals, but their tour starts this Saturday night in Minneapolis -- however, they could catch a plane up there after their in-store, stranger things have happened. Naked Raygun could be the mystery band, since they're not doing anything. Lawrence Arms could also be it since they have nothing else going on.

thedavidescapeplan Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 That's very true, but I don't want to pay for over six hours of parking if I don't need to. I'm sure I'll be there, this sounds too awesome to miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking it's Raygun or Lawrence Arms, either of which I'd be stoked on. Other possibilities: Pegboy, Screeching Weasel (they just got back together, but I have no clue what else they'd be doing that day). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
