Lilly!

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

He won't hit anyone

He will just give then his devastating stare which works better and for which he can not be tossed.

I got the $60 super deluxe edition.

First CD I ever bought was Crash, and this year will include my 23-26 concerts.

The su-du edition has 6 discs, including a DVD, and original art from Dave. It’s well worth it. This is the best album since Before These Crowded Streets, without a doubt.

This tour is very atypical of years past.

It started a few weeks ago, and goes well into September. If you want to get a show, I’m sure you can. LeRoi’s death really lit a fire under these guys, they are playing better than I’ve heard them since early 2000s.

No, I downloaded one of them, but haven't listened to it straight through yet.

They haven’t put all the new songs into the right order yet, IMO, so I think it’s gonna take a while to blend everything together.

our Blanco?

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

because

Riot is the SS. Until he shows he REALLY can’t play the position, Lou isn’t going to move him.

Sucks, because we’d probably be better with Blanco at short and Riot at 2nd, but there you are.
