June 17th Chicago roll call

[ALady]

I think it's sounding like Kasey's Tavern?

It's just a few blocks from the Auditorium, pretty prime location.

I'm meeting with the Mercy Home representative tomorrow morning, so hopefully we'll know a little more about what we'll need to do after that.  Thanks for the offer to help, Tater!   I'm gonna take you up on that!

this makes me want to come up really bad... i may just come up in the morning and hang at a free spot (like da zoo) and then come to this and the show then drive home. morning obligations make this tough though.

[ALady]

You guys, the folks at Mercy Home are PSYYYYCHED about our little shindig and really want to get involved!  I'm hoping we can make this a successful event for them.  They'll be providing "Shamrocks for Kids" pins for a small donation and will also be providing literature and money collection cans. 

Hoping to have a Facebook event page up and running later today  :)  Thanks all for your enthusiasm and generosity - let's keep it going!   :)

 :D It looks like I'm going to be able to make it if I spend the next 5 days in bed!!! So, I'm loaded with Okonokos and my other Jacket DVDs and lots of family Guy and American dad and soup. I'm excited about this Mercy House event and would like to donate a show poster the full band just autographed for me. This is the type of stuff I love to be involved in and any assistance I can provide, please let me know.  ONE WEEK!

[ALady]

That is awesome Deja, thanks so much!!  PM sent.  And so glad to hear you'll be able to make the show after all!

And right by the hotel

I'll be the guy looking like he's looking for somebody but doesn't know what they look like.

With wife in tow.

5 ish?

[Crispy]

4ish, I think.

Hey, sign me up as a helper since I'm not donating stuff, and I'll be there early too.

Anyone have 1 or two extra for Friday's show? I see a bunch on CL but would rather grab one from a fellow fan. Let me know. Thanks.

[Rufus T. Firefly]

Thanks...oh, anyone know when will call opens?

[La barba de Castro]

Thanks...oh, anyone know when will call opens?

I believe I read somewhere it opens at 5:30.

[CHIMMJFAN]

I called the Auditorium and the box office opens at 12pm, I'm curious if we can get our tickets that soon?

you should be able to. thats what i did at the Palace show.

My friend is going to this show and will already be in Chicago that day. His wife is flying into O'Hare arriving at 8:30pm. What is the quickest way for her to get to the venue, she won't have any luggage with her. Do you suggest a cab or train  or...? They're cutting it close but hoping it can be done. They have awesome seats (thanks to Caseydog!)

So if doors open at 7:30, so DMM would go on at 8-8:45, MMJ would most likely come on at 9/9:15? Is this right?

thanks for your help!
