I'm going, yeah. Hold Steady, Les Savy Fav, Go! Team, and such like 20 minutes from my house, why the hell not?

― jaymc (jaymc), Sunday, 3 July 2005 00:29 (twenty years ago)

Actually, a lot of the Chicago ILXors will be there: N/A and Sarah McLusky, Jeff-PTTL and pullapartgirl, dan m., giboyeux.

― jaymc (jaymc), Sunday, 3 July 2005 00:31 (twenty years ago)

i think i'd rather eat a fire ant mound.

― strng hlkngtn, Sunday, 3 July 2005 00:41 (twenty years ago)

i'm in for both days. actually pretty damn excited to see broken social scene, the wrens and hold steady -- none of whom i've seen.

― john'n'chicago, Sunday, 3 July 2005 00:49 (twenty years ago)

― john'n'chicago, Sunday, 3 July 2005 01:28 (twenty years ago)

i'm coming too. excited for hold steady and les savy fav. les savy fav live makes me want to take my clothes off. i cant wait

― phil-two (phil-two), Sunday, 3 July 2005 01:49 (twenty years ago)

yes, that is definitely a highlight. not the clothes removal, im talking about les savy fav!

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Sunday, 3 July 2005 02:02 (twenty years ago)

though im sure LSF is much more fun in dark crowded sweaty venue/club than in big opem sunny park.

― phil-two (phil-two), Sunday, 3 July 2005 02:06 (twenty years ago)

im probably dj'ing somewhere on saturday night, then putting together another party on sunday night. will post more details later!

― phil-two (phil-two), Sunday, 3 July 2005 02:08 (twenty years ago)

keep me informed.

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Sunday, 3 July 2005 02:25 (twenty years ago)

this is all in standard tuning/intonation, right?

― hstencil (hstencil), Sunday, 3 July 2005 09:11 (twenty years ago)

no, i prefer open tunings. and sustained chords.

― maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Sunday, 3 July 2005 11:50 (twenty years ago)

I'll be there. I'm so excited to see LSF again, they are probably my favorite live band ever.

― Jeff-PTTL (Jeff), Monday, 11 July 2005 22:10 (twenty years ago)

i'll be there. i've seen a fair amount of the roster live already, but theres a few (thunderbirds are now!, broken social scene, xiu xiu especially) that i am really looking forward to seeing again.

― jonathan - stl (jonathan - stl), Monday, 11 July 2005 22:34 (twenty years ago)

i'll be there, flying solo though since the girlfriend bailed on two days of bands she doesn't like or hasn't heard of (except BSS and Hold Steady).

― jonviachicago, Tuesday, 12 July 2005 01:15 (twenty years ago)

I will be there. Random ILXers need to hang out with me! Seriously, i'm going with my friend who is gonna bail on me for half of saturday.

My band is playing Schubas (corner of Belmont & Southport) with Neva Dinova and Mayday. We go on at 11:30. I think it's like $8 or something.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:08 (twenty years ago)

(That's on Friday, as per Maria's query.)

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:10 (twenty years ago)

I think I signed up right. I guess we'll find out. Is there going to be an attempt to organize a massive ILX meet-up, either on-site or before/after?

― n/a (Nick A.), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:10 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to try a make it for Dungen...

― temeraire (r h), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:16 (twenty years ago)

This weekend is gonna be INSANE. But in a mellowed-out Chicago indie-guitar-band kinda way. I will be sleeping on all your couches and stealing all your drugs.

― nabisco (nabisco), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:17 (twenty years ago)

very displeased to discover i have a midterm on monday. gonna make enjoying / attending this difficult.

― teh Nü and Impröved john n chicago (frankE), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:19 (twenty years ago)

I want to go to things/be involved, but i don't really like most of these bands. Any recommendations? Jaymc, yr band plays friday? Maybe I can rope some friends into going. What kind of music do you play? I'm picturing crunk'n'b. ; )

― deej.., Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:27 (twenty years ago)

Yes. Jaymc is less part of the "band" and more one of the backup dancers.

― nabisco (nabisco), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

Er, yes.

We have been described as "chamber pop," I guess?

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:30 (twenty years ago)

(Although, you know, you can listen to mp3s on the website, and read our press to get a better idea.)

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:32 (twenty years ago)

phil - are Pitchforkers going to be guestlisted for your "Pitchfork" party?

oh oops. i told the programmer to change that to "chicago launch party".

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:33 (twenty years ago)

ok ok i know, we weren't really ready to launch but then it got written up in flavorpill, and i forgot that it comes out on tuesday. so basically, make a profile, and then add CHICAGO_PARTY as your pal.

but basically, this is a social-networking website where you make your hotlist of stuff in music, fashion, movies, tv, etc, that you like. kinda like myspace meets amazon wishlists.

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:36 (twenty years ago)

phil - not a big deal, just didn't want any confusion -- will hopefully see you this weekend.

― scott pl. (scott pl.), Tuesday, 12 July 2005 20:47 (twenty years ago)

Jaymc, i'm on dialup so downloading things is not really practical - but i'll trust you and see if i can get some friends to make the "trek."
