Looks like you're throwing yourself out there on the market pretty generously...

Small Town, USA hustler 😬

I'll be there—assuming I actually manage to wake up by then.

Anyone want me to point them toward some good spots for a pre-show drink? Whether you're looking for a dive bar or just a chill patio, hit me up in my DMs. I’ll be hanging out in Small Town, USA all day (and night, and tomorrow morning... basically until I move away) 😬

I am arriving on an official diplomatic visit, and I fully expect the neighboring state to extend a warm welcome.

It’s gonna be a wild ride, especially if those skinwalkers decide to show up. I remember once back in Small Town, USA, everything went completely sideways just because someone was wearing a shirt with a red five-pointed star on the back. Honestly, only God was looking out for me that day.😁

Oh dear, I completely forgot I'll be in Chicago this Saturday.😵

I'll be there! But honestly, I'm mostly showing up just for Green Day 🙂 🙂

It would be a dream if they played for an hour or two later on

Miles Davis’s influence is everywhere; it’s just the one thing you can’t quite hear if you aren't listening closely.😁

I’m not going to sit here and break it down for you. Just get over here and listen.

Is it just me, or is anyone else seriously hurting for the Small Town, USA open-air festival?! 😕
It’s gonna happen..
Man, I'm feeling the sting, but honestly, I've already checked him out a few times anyway..

I suspect most of the sane people who couldn't care less about those Small Town, USA open-air festivals aren't even bothering to post in this thread anymore.

Since they don't give a damn, right?

Exactly 😉

If the weather holds up, I might just take the plunge.

"The local weather forecast for Washington, D.C. and the surrounding metro area for June 10, 2006

Expect a day of shifting clouds with intermittent rain—and honestly, keep an eye out for those sudden, localized thunderstorms that always seem to catch you off guard. It’s going to feel a bit cooler, too. We’re looking at more significant rainfall hitting mid-day and stretching into the afternoon. Winds will stay mostly light, though they might pick up to a moderate breeze from the north and northeast toward the end of the day. Morning temperatures should hover between 12 and 14 degrees, with a daytime high reaching about 17 degrees Celsius.

So what if things get a little messy... as long as they don't cancel the show. Honestly, boldeagle3 and I (along with our "better halves") wouldn't mind watching the whole thing from the window anyway. 😬

If only they would play for another hour or two later on...

Oh please, no way. It’s fine the way it is, besides I still have to make it to the quasi-Misfits show
🙂

The sky over Small Town, USA is gray, rainy, and just miserable. Looks like the concert is going to be a total washout.
☕

Don't be ridiculous

My contact back in Small Town, USA says he'll be there

I'll give you a heads-up once I have more specifics

There’s definitely gonna be a concert...

The show is happening right now, with The Fillmore on stage. Everything is set for 5🙂

The radio said they'd be on by 2 PM, and everyone was hyping up Bitches Brew as the next big local thing. Just out of some sense of hometown pride, I decided to check them out. They pushed the set back to 3:30, so I ducked into a bar to kill some time. Turns out, they weren't even playing. I swung by Mother Teresa around 6:30, where I struggled through two sips of a Budweiser draft—honestly, calling that beer is an insult; it’s basically liquid evil. Then I sat through two tracks that were... let's just say "less painful" than the beer, mostly involving some guy singing about smoking his junk. Decided to wait for the Idiot at the pub with some Coors Light before heading home to crash for a bit. Fell asleep and just woke up now...
The white coast isn't looking too strong from where I'm sitting....

It was alright 🙂
