Band on the Run

All moved out of The Jungle in Bloomington, settled in Chicago, and yet again dealing with not having internet!!! Right now I'm at my parents' house in Southern Indiana and leaving for Florida tomorrow, and I think the condo down there has it so I'll try to crank out some posts/get some scheduled in case the wireless is for some reason not up when I get back to Chicago. It has been a crazy month, that's for sure.

For now, I'll leave you with some pictures from a Paul McCartney concert we saw at Wrigley Field on August 1. I'm not going to lie, I was excited when I heard we'd be seeing him, but probably not as excited as I should have been. He was never my FAVORITE Beatle, and most of my favorite songs were John songs, but he WAS a Beatle none the less. The show ended up being probably among my five favorite shows I have ever seen. He is still SO amazing live, and played a ton of Beatles music along with songs I apparently didn't even realize were his. If you have any interest in him/the Beatles, it is totally worth your while to spend the money to see him.

"McCartney has more hits than the Cubs"... Loved this one!

Day in the Life

Have you guys been up to anything fun this summer? Any other good concerts out there? One of my next posts will be a Lollapalooza recap of sorts. See you then!

First Day of Class!

Ok, so I guess my first day of class was on tuesday. I'm clearly a little behind here. I'm only taking one summer class, and it's The History of The Beatles, so it's really quite the enjoyable way to spend two hours of my day Monday through Thursday.

The professor, Glenn Gass, is one I've had for two other History of Rock classes, and I LOVE him. You can tell how much he loves the Beatles and every aspect of the music he talks about, and he's so passionate about all of it. It's basically just two hours of hearing all these great stories about the band and those associated with them, and Glenn has clearly told these stories so many times, been to these places, met a lot of these people, it's almost as if he was there when the story happened.

Anyways, this is what I wore. Thank goodness I opted for leggings under this dress, because it was one hell of a windy day, and I don't think the journey to class is the appropriate place to pull a Marilyn.

What's everyone else up to this summer? Summer classes? Working? Any good vacations? Also- stay tuned, my roommate is going to be having a give away sometime in the near future, so I'll be sure to shamelessly plug that for all it's worth!
