The Nightmare Before Christmas 2006 (curated by Thurston Moore)

Mr. Wrong said:the real issue in England isn't the wind, it's the ugly women

🤣

... and forty years of success at the FIFA World Cup ...

Wind, sandals?? Elaborate 😁

hollowseal33 I can't even begin to process this... I mean, honestly? It’s just one thing after another with people these days. You see something, you think it makes sense, and then someone opens their mouth and completely dismantles any shred of logic left in the room. It's exhausting... truly exhausting. Every time I think we've reached a baseline of common sense, someone decides to throw a wrench in the works just for the hell of it. I'm sitting here trying to make sense of it all, but it feels like I'm shouting into a void sometimes... anyway, where was I? Right. This whole situation is just ridiculous...
Wind, sandals?? Elaborate... 😁

Honestly, one of the most bizarre things about this country is how you’ll see women walking around in sandals right in the middle of a brutal winter... It makes absolutely no sense... 😕 You’re gonna be shivering and freezing your ass off, but he’ll just be strolling through the snow in sandals like he’s hanging out on a beach in Malibu in the middle of July... 😕

Wind is way more vicious than rain... because at least with rain, you just get wet. But the wind? It actually cuts right through you. Rain is just annoying when it falls, but the wind... it tears at you...

Make sure you factor in the costs, and keep in mind that a beer is gonna run you about five bucks on average... 😠

make sure you factor in that a pint of beer runs about seven bucks on average here😠

Please. I’ll just stick to double socks and shorts; let the wind blow if it wants to.

Or honestly, I might just knock back a liter of bourbon. Some good old-fashioned whiskey will keep the chill off.

I know about that whole "sandals syndrome" thing. I was talking about it with a friend once, and we both figured we could probably get just as drunk on sandals if we tried hard enough. 😁

I grew up in Chicago; you'll survive. 😁

I'm probably heading to
but I definitely don't plan on sleeping

Aha, so how exactly are you planning to get to the show? 😁

Check the FAQ, first question here:

Due to the venue's specific licensing, you can't grab just a ticket. Every ticket comes bundled with a festival pass plus three nights of lodging!

well, I guess he's awake

Alright, maybe just a little bit 😁

What’s the deal with having to drop a fortune just to get some sleep?
That's just wrong.
Those vultures at Coachella used to charge a ridiculous amount just to pitch a tent.
I mean, sure, back when you could actually camp out, but still.

in Chicago you don't really have to ☕

Yeah, $333 is sleeping and $100 is three days at a festival with those bands listed above. I don't think so 🙂 honestly, life's a bitch, but I prefer it this way—way more hippie vibes. :ekskurzija:

Honestly, people should just shoot them an email and ask if they have some kind of special discount rate for us Americans

Knowing how the British operate, they’d probably charge us twice as much and put us under total lockdown😁

Moša Pijade never actually slept. ☕

Basically, we just need one more person who can drive and $617 covers the flight, tickets, and lodging, plus extra for pocket money and miscellaneous stuff (like getting to the resort, an extra night's stay, etc.). This person would be the fourth member of our little crew.

Man, now you're really tempting me... I've got the itch. Markan wants to go!

After the initial rush, there's always a few minutes where things sink in. It's a massive amount of money, and it just reminded me how much I hate dealing with those thermal issues. Maybe some other time at the local arena... goodnight.

Sometime around July, Markan calls me up and says I'm not going to Chicago. 🙂"

A bit later, some kid starts washing the windows at the Willis Tower

I'm assuming you actually mean the city itself... 😈

(Please don't tell me no... I mean, any compliment regarding a well-fed crowd is always welcome...) 🙂
