This weekend, I could have seen Ted Leo in Chicago. I should have. But I may have a job because I passed on it. So I think it all evens out.<br><br>

The club fire is a tragedy, and I think the really sad thing is that I have never once looked for the exits. Ever.<Br>What's really sad is the finger pointing afterwards.<br><br>

In other news, Eminem + the Roots = Amazing Grammy Performance. Even though lil' Marshall always gets nervous when he's performing on those shows.<br>

Clash Tribute = Torn feelings. Grohl should have been drumming like he was born to do (and not FAKING the brit accent). Van Zandt (how do you spell that??) wasn't really needed.<br>

Suffice to say, Rancid should have been doing it. With Elvis Costello helping.<Br><br>

Chicago is a great city, goto Tommy Nevin's pub in Evanston.
