chi-town part 2! (big post again, shut up)

today (thursday) was our day to pack up and head back to minnesota... we decided to take a detour about an hour out of the way to a place called Fox Valley Motor Cars.... an exotic car dealer on the outskirts of west chicago. this place is my heaven on earth... 8 lotus esprits, 11 lamborghinis including a diablo SV, and many ferraris, lotus elises, and bmws as well... you all know i love me some car pics so here goes!!!!!

chi-town part 1! big post... if you dont like it, kiss my @$$

Me and my girlfriend decided to take a trip to chicago in order ot see my favorite musician, Joe Satriani (best guitar player ever in my opinion)... chicago's house of blues was the closest venue he was playing at on his new album tour, plus ive been to chicago before and absolutely love it there...we left on tuesday night and had a nice 7 hour car ride. we arrived and stayed at the red roof inn.. .small rooms but it was cheap and got the job done....

the next day (wednesday) we woke up and went shopping along michigan ave which is where all the big brand name stores are.... i took advantage of this for some nice city picture-taking with my trusty cameraphone...

we also stopped in gold coast bentley in downtown and saw some nice cars including the first ever lamborghini murcielago ive ever seen... and the second... the red one was a roadster. they are all assholes there except for the front receptionist. they wouldnt let me take pictures but i snuck some anyways which explains the poor quality...

that night was the concert... we ended up waiting outside for a good half hour... the line stretched all the way down theside of the building, around the corner and then down another city block.

Eric Johnson was the opener for Satriani and he is an AMAZING guitar player as well. (download the song "Cliff of Dover")...

Satriani came out afterwards and did an INCREDIBLE show and played a lot of stuff from his new album and a lot of the old classics as well...
