god, summer is moving fucking fast! SLOW DOWN. SLOOOOOW DOWNNNNNN.

this coming Wednesday is the Chicago stop on The Decemberists' "A Bit of Grass-Stain Does Not a Ruined Pair of Jeans Make" outdoor orchestral tour, and admission is free. I'd like to go down in the morning, ish, and make a picnic of it -- the concert starts at 6:30 but, well, it's free and it's in fucking Grant Park; no way am I not going to stake out considerably early. I mean, picnic! yes! though, also, there's the part where I may be able to squeeze in a Lush stop. poooossibly.

so, okay, point being? WHO'S WITH ME? I know it's late notice. that's because I'm a slacker. but seriously, guys? Wednesday July 18? pleeeease? my sister and maybe her girlfriend are coming, but if it's just the three of us then there's the whole third-wheel syndrome where they just sit around canoodling and talking about WOW and I'm going "... um."

in conclusion, DECEMBERISTS. GRANT PARK. FREE.

YES.

(we'd catch the metra from Kenosha down to Ogilvie Station, and that costs like. six or ten or twelve bucks or something.)

That sounds amazing, but I am not in the right geographical zone, unfortunately. Double unfortuately(but awesome in its own right), I'm going to a non-free Ani DiFranco concert that same night.
