Chicago: customers are advised to allow extra travel time

Speaking of Hopper...

The only thing everybody at Lollapalooza has in common is the willingness to be painfully gouged for a ticket. Even crowds that might seem a bit more like-minded (at Pitchfork, para ejemplo) make for a grim and dystopian scene

... no one at the Reader knows Spanish well enough to change that to "por ejemplo"?

also, that is a jammin version of superstition

Yeah, I love that clip.

LOL they speed up like a motherfucker by the end

where is jeff beck?

Has anyone been to the Great Taste of the Midwest Beer Festival in Madison? I may be performing there next weekend....although I'm not sure the guy fully comprehends our show. I mean, from what I know, small children are at this festival.

Yeah, my band plays there every year. :>

What is your show? I don't see many kids there, just wasted parents.

ps it's a great time

Burlesque...that's why I'm confused. At least one of the other dancers and I are game for the gig, but we need to find out details. We can definitely modify to make it more family friendly, but it's still gonna be burlesque.

family-friendly burlesque is an oxymoron, no? Or at least not much fun. :(

The group does have some numbers that are straight up dance numbers, no clothing whatsoever removed, and a couple of us sing. But since several of the other dancers are unavailable next weekend, this would probably be strictly solos.

Hmmm, it's basically a bunch of drunk Midwesterners drinking unlimited beer in a sunny park during the day. Maybe it would be weird, but there's a pretty great vibe there, so I could see it working out fine.

(the website says kids are allowed btw)

What kid wouldn't love watching some pole dancing and "Pour Some Sugar On Me" with a corn dog and some fries?

that's not burlesque, either!

ISN'T IT

hahahaha that's straight up stripping

It depends on how the corn dog & fries are used.

that's not burlesque, either!

Tell that to Amber, Angel, Montana, and Quinn.

...

oh, you said Quinn.

the name Montana still instantly makes me thing of Montana Wildhack from Slaughterhouse 5.

hahahaha

not Hannah Montana?

you know me better than that.

Take it to the Teenpop thread.

hey i only sorta learned who this hannah montana is but apparently she's huge! there are even s1mplicity patterns with her name on them!

DID YOU KNOW: she's Billy Ray Cyrus's daughter?

That I did know!

and she's disney's pawn, no?

I don't know who you people are talking about.

I'm trying to wean myself from "cheating" on crossword puzzles, but it's not going very well. I can only seem to complete one w/heavy internet assistance. :(

there are support groups for cheaters like you.

xxpost Yep.

We are talking about Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray's 14-year-old daughter, who appears on a Disney Channel TV show called Hannah Montana in which she plays a girl named Miley Stewart who performs as a pop singer named Hannah Montana. In real life, Miley Cyrus skips the middleman and performs and releases albums as Hannah Montana. Shit's huge among the tweener crowd. And certain ILXors.

I do crossword puzzles on the train, mostly, so I can't cheat.

But don't you ever get stuck and frustrated?

Of course I do. Then I just have to concentrate harder. Or ask Kr for help when I get home.

http://www.oneacross.com is too tempting

host of cheaters, dude!

also: er1c & sarah had their baby.

why that is google-proofed, I do not know.

We meant to tell you guys earlier. Sorry, Nick.

Eazy and Sarah Jammerman had a baby?!

xpost

Yeah, I like the name! Although I don't know if it is pronounced with an E sound or an I sound. Also, I had a dream last night that we were hanging out with the baby in Cr1ss3y 6 and K3rry wouldn't shut up about The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

It can be playmates with mine and 3van's kid.

I'm going to go post that on their blog now.

I just emailed eric to congratulate him & ask for tips on how to pronounce it. That is a HILARIOUS dream, dude!

I know, right? Like I said on the blog: "...he kept interjecting to talk about how everything we were doing and saying would've been scripted if it were a "Fresh Prince" episode."

it's pronounced with a hard E. So, K-eye-lee

You mean a hard I.
