When does the merch truck usually open on the day of the concert?

No song vote? Have they stopped doing this?

have fun everyone

hope for a rambler night

and cyhmk for bv

got a feeling these are gonna be a special pair of shows

I was at Soldier Field about 90 minutes ago. Merch truck set up near where you enter for floor. There is a small tunnel to walk through. Was not open then but my experience is they usually open about 3:00 pm on show days

What were the four choices for fan vote tonight.

I voted for She's a Rainbow, but I can't recall the rest!

Old age. CRS!

Big thanks!

We'll be there tonight and Sunday!

Life is good!

Fun hang at Kasey's. Now a little rest before LD pickup at 6 PM.

Just saw the band leaving the hotel about 20 minutes ago.

I haven't been too interested in the openers I've gotten, but I think those of you getting Bettye LaVette tonight, wow, enjoy! .. If only Chicago was across the street from me

Well soundcheck just gave away the song vote winner.....

Well...

Do you want me to spoil it? Tumbling Dice, Cloud, and the song vote winner. I'd say I missed the 1st one played.

I've seen the Chicago poster, I was hoping for an early Chicago gangster poster

Early Chicago gangsters (Al Capone) is pretty much all us backwater colonials know about the city

Looks like that Capone shirt was 2006. Where does time go.....did anyone see the Chicago paint splatter shirts with poster on back. I didn't see that one

No catwalk in the center tonight?

No it's there. Same set up as always.

Catwalk seems lower.

Pattye LaVette is legit. Wow.

Certainly better than normal support act fare. They should have a 78 year old for every show.
Syrel

Go down to GA by our self.
