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

Three Days, Six Bars, Three Bands

Good Times in the Area even with all this weather we're getting.

Between the overcast and big storms, we still got in some good-timin' here in the northeastern part of Illinois, home of the $4+ gasoline.

FRIDAY, MAY 4TH

Dentist appointments in Round Lake Beach.  Rancho Nuevo restaurant in Roound Lake for lunch.  One thing about having all the people from Mexico living in the Round Lake area is that you can take a trip to Mexico withour leaving the state.  Just go to downtown Round Lake.  One of my favorite Mexican restaurants with huge portions.

Did some yardwork and later, met the Usual Suspects at Stormy Monday and then stopped at the Legionon the way home.


SATURDAY, MAY 5TH

Enjoyed WXRT's Saturday Morning Flashback to 1969, a primo year for us.  Then to the Squaw Bar in Ingleside to watch the Kentucky Derby and celebrate Cinco de Mayo with $1,50 Coronas.  Kicked off the boating season at Captain's Quarters with the high energy trio Paper Airplanes of Fire playing classic and newer rock.


SUNDAY, MAY 6TH

Bob Stroud went to May 6th 1969 and 1974 on his Rock and Roll Roots Time Warp in the morning.  Got some yard work in and burn piling before the storm hit.

Then it was Terry and Gregg Spizzirri playing at AJ's Horsin' Around in Round Lake Park and a solo guy playing a twelve-string guitar at the Route 12 Bar.
