And I remember those days too davin. In the days before Ticketmaster online, you actually had to CALL omg and keep hitting redial. I still remember the number... 312 559 1212
call? haha, that never worked! i remember havign to buy a sack of mcdonalds breakfast to coax 10 people to wait in line for me and draw lottery tickets. thats how it went 1992-1994, with everyone leaving after drawing/eating....and me keeping the best lottery ticket to stay and actually purchase the actual tickets (IF they stayed onsale and didn't sell out before the line got to me). that shit was brutal. i wanted to kill several minimum wage ticketmaster counter jockeys.

oh, and please stop saying "east side". there is no such thing in chicago. billy got it right in his riverview lyrics. so should you. http://www.chipublib.org/cplbooksmov...mbols/flag.php
