Flight to Midwest America: $355
Hotel stay: $155
Concert ticket: $195
Corn on the cob: $3
Memories to last a lifetime: Priceless...
Cheeseburger, I know, but I've always wanted to write something like that.
After making the horrible decision to not attend Coachella (I blame momentary retardation), I was determined to make up for it by traveling the distance to attend the next big thing. I was also excited to visit Barack Obama's hometown. Barack the Casbah.
I'll list my favorite three performances.
The energy, oh, the energy. I felt like I was staring at a giant Brite Lite setup on speed.
Despite the heat... then the rain (wtf!?!)... then the heat again, the journey was well rewarded. Although I've been anti-big-venue and anti-outdoor in the past, and although this adventure put a big a$$ dent in my wallet, it was well worth every penny and every minute of every delayed flight. I'm going again next year... and you're coming with me.

Blonde Redhead.
She sat on a giant fake horse on stage. Yes, it was black felt.
Silverchair.
Oh, grunge. How I missed you. And man, did Daniel Johns age or what?
Daft Punk.
