another few months go by and something cool enough finally happened to me worth posting. this past weekend, chris, agnes, and myself drove down to chicago for a fun filled NOFX weekend. we had a great time in chicago. I need to head back over there sometime, there is SO much to do there. I don't know why I was so suprised, it is the 3rd biggest city in the US. Anyway, back to NOFX, the show was so amazing. When we got there, we heard from a girl who had been at the early show (they played two that day) that they had played the decline. We were pretty bummed, thinking that there would be no way they would play the song again that night. Considering they haven't played the whole thing (18+ mins) in concert before this tour, we were sure we had missed a once in a lifetime chance. Anyway, they must have decided to learn the song (they complain about how hard it is to play) for the tour. I guess they almost had to learn it considering the name of the tour is, "the decline". Anyway, they come out on stage and chit chat a little and then fat mike says, "well, we are going to play this 18 min song for the 2nd time today." I looked over at chris and knew we were never going to forget this show. After the first song, the beauty quickly left the show. fat mike, made a wardrobe change (bra and little black panties) and they played classic nofx for the another hour. Songs that I can remember included: bob, linoleum, perfect government, murder the government, my heart is yearning and bottles to the ground (the only two songs we could have lived without), you're wrong, "chicago", franco unamerican, whoops, I 'od, dinasaurs will die and finished off with an encore performance of the brews. anyway, here are some pics from the weekend
