One of my favorite things about the city of Chicago is the large number of street festivals, block parties, etc., that take place all summer long. If you can't find something to do on a weekend here, you're probably just not looking hard enough.

In case you took an internet hiatus overnight, here's some "news" for you: Lollapalooza's lineup for the 2010 festival has been released in full, including all the letters and &s and *'s, because god forbid they write out Fuck Buttons on their website.

March is getting off to a bit of a slow start. I think the month of March knows that I will be spending most of April skulking about in various venues for an absurd number of shows. March is telling me that I need to get my sleep, I think.
