Great choices. I either have to be at home or have other plans thurs - sat. But if the stars align I might be able to get over to the Panda Bear show.
Has to be the best part of being in Chicago, even during a supposed drought it rains something fierce...
Sunday, should be a fantastic show!
i call it the sxsw halo effect. all the bands that play sxsw have to either hit chicago on the way down or back. it just makes sense in terms of gas money and breking up a long ass drive to texas.
