So yeah.....this happens every year about fifty miles away from where I live.  Unbelievable.....I have never seen so many people eat so many nuts.....and I'm not talking about the kind of nuts that squirrels eat.

Thanksgiving gone awry, or excellent local tradition.  You be the judge.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

26-Year-Old To See Every Asshole He Ever Went To High School With On Night Before Thanksgiving

Hahaha, the above article from The Onion, says it like it is.  I totally just had this exact experience last night at one of the local watering holes in my neighborhood.  The day before Thanksgiving (Black Wednesday) is regarded as the biggest drinking night of the year at the bars because everyone is home for the holiday.  So I made my way out only to have one after another uncomfortable encounters with people I haven't seen since High School.  The funny thing is that tomorrow (Black Friday), is going to be a repeat performance of yesterday because my rock band is doing a gig at the other happening bar in the neighborhood.

For those of you who don't about Thanksgiving in the U.S., it's the yearly celebration commemorating the pilgrimage of the pilgrims who fled Britain for the U.S. which led to the start of the country.  Anyway, we get days off from work for it, and everyone gets together with their families and feasts on copious amounts of turkey and gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and mmm mmm all kinds of great eats.

so yeah, even if this doesn't apply to you....
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Thanks to everyone who came out last night, it was a blast.  Jeff Bloom, Scrubfish, & myself ended up doing a massive 4 - 5 hour tag team set that was loads of fun.  I will hopefully be grabbing the recording of that and throwing it up for download on the site really soon.  Lots of cool cats were in attendance which is the great thing about the Chicago house scene.  Shouts to Jeff Bloom of course and PO!NTF!VE Productions for doing this night every Friday....Scrubbers, South of Roosevelt (bottom left pic), DJ Sangre (bottom middle pic), Roshan, Justin Long, Rick Nielsen of Corduroy Mavericks who came all the way from Lexington, KY, De Pace, Robert Sssss (all upper right corner pic), Sean Sanders, Tim Biars and everyone else who came and kicked it with us.
