I'd love to see any of those artists but I'm nowhere near Chicago and have no money. Really solid lineup though.

And Kanye West is coming to BC this spring. It cost our school 250 thousand dollars, which is more than all three acts last year (Talib Kweli, Robert Randolph, Virginia Coalition).

I wish we had concerts at our fucking school, the best thing we've had is a marathon.

A friend of mine who goes to UCLA said that Thrice played a benefit concert there, yes, a benefit concert. For what, I have no idea.

Not that I like Thrice.

Not that I think Thrice is overrated.

The benefit show was for "Invisible Children" foundation. Thrice was overrated until their last album, now they deserve every ounce of respect they get.
