Packers vs. Bears @ Lambeau Field

Lambeau Field - National Anthem

Lambeau Field.  The Frozen Tundra.  September 9th.  Packers 100th Season opener versus the Chicago football Bears.  Point the way Curly! “Not so fast!” says Coach Lombardi‘s stern gaze.  Made a stop at the Atrium & Packers Pro Shop for merch and had lunch at Kroll’s West (possibly the best cheese curds in Wisconsin?). Stopped at … Read more

Fleet Foxes @ Chicago Theatre

Fleet Foxes @ Chicago Theatre

Got lucky and scored tickets months ago to see Fleet Foxes at the Chicago Theatre.  First balcony booth seats with a table and waiter service thanks to an awesome pre-sale deal. Opening band Nap Eyes was OK if nothing else.  Super chill sleepy-time music.  Guess it’s not just a clever name? Fleet Foxes went on around … Read more

Blackhawks vs Predators @ United Center 12/08/2015

Thanks to my cousin Bryce who was able to get a few tickets to a Hawks game, we had a blast! Hawks won 4-1 and Kane’s point streak at the time was up to 23 games.  Check this page for more details and recap.   Some videos:   Lat = 41.8806725 , Long = -87.6740799 … Read more

Lambeau Field Tour

Visited the historic Lambeau Field in Green Bay, WI with my cousin Bryce, Uncle Bob, and Aunt Theresa.  Apparently they don’t let you walk on the grass, but we did get within inches of doing so – very cool considering players like Roders, Favre, White, Starr, Nitschke, etc. all played the game.  We also visited … Read more

Deftones / Incubus @ Hollywood Casino Ampitheatre

Deftones and Incubus @ Hollywood Casino Ampithetre, Tinley Park IL 07/23/2015

Old concert photos from Deftones and Incubus at the Hollywood Casino Ampitheatre in Tinley Park, Illinois. These ones especially are pretty bad, but still sharing to track the shows I’ve been to. We had lawn seats and got there late so they were pretty far in the back. My iPhone 5 just couldn’t keep up … Read more

Wolves vs Admirals @ Allstate Arena

Caught a Wolves/Admirals game at the Allstate Arena in Chicago that our manager at work put together (thanks Paul!).  Great seats right on the glass behind the Wolves bench.  Wolves won in OT but beer was relatively cheap I think.  See the game recap here. Lat = 42.0050850 , Long = -87.8875351 — Show at … Read more

Packers vs. Bears @ Lambeau Field

Back in December of 2013 during normal Christmas festivities, my Aunt Phyllis said “These presents are great everyone, but you know what would be better?  A Packers game!”  We were used to hearing the same thing every year, and rolling our eyes in response.  However this year would be different I told myself.  So during … Read more

mewithoutYou @ Bottom Lounge

mewithoutYou – Catch For Us The Foxes 10 year Anniversary Tour with openers The Appleseed Cast and Hop Along.  Crappy photos but was a great show as usual, and they played the entire album (CFUTF) straight through plus a killer encore (setlist here).  I didn’t know anything about Hop Along but they were good so I … Read more
