I went to see Mahalia last night, and what a fun show! I missed her the last time she was in Chicago, because I waited til the last minute to purchase tickets, and they sold out on my ass. Granted I waited the last minute for these tickets, cuz I don’t learn my lessons, but I didn’t love the venue. House of Blues Chicago, is one of my least favorite venues in Chicago, even though it really is centrally located and has incredible sound, the view points aren’t my favorite. This time I was early enough to literally walk all three floors, and inquire about ‘upgrades’ which is stool seating for 100$. I settled on the second floor spacing right in front of the bar, and it wasn’t a bad view. The only down was this baldheaded mojo that was sitting in the stool, that was apparently drunk and/or high that couldn’t sit still. If I wasn’t concerned with getting escorted out, I would’ve hit him in the damn head. bastard.
Also After leaving the venue, I got sick. So there’s that.
Jonez.
