Happy birthday to Jesus's America

Yo, it was so fun we decided to do it again! This Saturday, I’m gonna be bartending at the L and L, and it’s gonna be off the proverbial heezy! Go see Against Me! at the Aragon and then come on down to the L and L for the kind of Saturday night you’ll almost certainly regret. Like I said before, folks, this is the bar that inspired most of the Lawrence Arms songs about killing yourself to live in some shitty dive, so come down and live the interactive “Chicago TLA death spiral experience” with me this Saturday at Clark and Belmont.

Okay, my mom is in town, and I’ve got some grandkids to hand off to her, so I’m not gonna waste your time with any hilarity or zingers today. Check out the BSC guide to summer fun (below) if you need something to read while you poop. I’m going outside.

Bye.

bk, my girlfriend is a transplant Chicago elitist. She came from Michigan and has lived there like 4 years. Maybe it could be a good topic to write about because I am sure you have come across this before.

Good idea, Mr. Kelly. It'd be better if my boyfriend wasn't 100% convinced that we're going to get mugged, burgled, raped and shot in the Aragon neighborhood.

hey, does anyone remember a while ago when Brendan was writing the songs for the Buttsweat & Tears EP, he said he was listening to some sort of... african tribal something something band and he mentioned that a song he was working on would be influenced by that style and it will be pretty out there (...I'm paraphrasing).

Does anyone hear any of this influence on any of the tracks from B&T? I randomly thought of that today.
