Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Three Days-- Four Bars-- Three Bands

OK, Good Times Around Here Again.

FRIDAY, APRIL 20TH

Met the Usual Suspects at Stormy Monday for drinks, a great sunset on Fox Lake and some intense-playing of the old jukebox.


SATURDAY, APRIL 21ST

Record Store Day at The Vinyl Frontier in McHenry, Illinois.  Back to Stormy Monday for the band Me and a Guy Named Moe (Moe is whoever at the time is wearing the dumb wig on their bald head).  Two bald guys, a guitar and bongos.  Kind of a early summer Chain of Lakes party.

 Bartender Donna got the May Wassup Magazine Bartender of the Month and then there was that Sox game (I'll write about that next).  Even better, the band played 5 to 9 PM.  My kind of party times.  Two buck pints and free food!! 

SUNDAY, APRIL 22ND

Went to After the Fox on the Fox River in McHenry for two afternoon bands.  So crowded, we had to sit out on the deck overlooking the river for the first band, Blind Spot, who played rock and blues and even did a Stones song I had never heard.

Then, Practice in Public played.  Some more great rock and blues.

Afterwards, we went to Twisted Moose for a fish fry and $10 buckets of domestics.
