so we went to Chicago and saw Alice In Chains with their new singer. they were the perfect AIC cover band. they did'nt do any new material...unless they did it last and i missed it. i was really disappointed about that. but they were really good and i thought the new guy had a great voice. they did all my favs from the old days.
after munching a bunch of yummy sushi at one of my fav places in the city, we arrived at the show right on time. (never happens with us) Smash got us a sweet spot in front of the soundboard with a rail to lean on. but as the show went on and people got drunker, it started to get kinda nasty. lots of pushing and manuevering for position etc. i caught a little girl red handed trying to pick my wallet. i could'nt believe that one. this crowd was full of 30 to 50ish white trash. a den of theives, crooks, hoods, wannabe has beens and WHITE FUCKING TRASH. not the cool west coast crowd i remember from the 90's at all. so i see Smash holding off this redneck hillbilly Joliet Jake type, and he starts trying to muscle in on her spot. now here is something Jethro does'nt know. Smash + Saki + Hillbillies = TROUBLE. so she gives him a hard elbow to the beergut.
and as i'm trying to get between them...this dork with the giant mustache HITS HER!!! so....I went into my tazmanian devil bit and the rest as they say... is history.
it got pretty ugly and a very LARGE guy named Tony helped us find the door.
but we sure had some fun...i tell ya.
bouncer guy saw it all and was cool to me. but we still had to go. it took all my best to calm the SMASHER down, i mean it. homegirl was pissed.

Haven't had that problem yet, then again it'd be hard to tell if either my x's house or where i live was trashed
