Thu 29 Apr – NOFX @ The Riverside

Menzingers - They were ok, kinda disappointing, not that much of a punk band really…

Tony Sly - Fucking horrid. That's all…He would have been great at the lillith fair but not so good at a NOFX show

Teenage Bottlerocket - Fucking AMAZING! They tore through all their best tracks in no time and got the crowed pumped up for NOFX. Easily the best band of the night.

NOFX - What can I say, Piss filled Tequilla shots, hand jobs in the opera boxes and general crazyness. The Decline was epic.

Sat 10 Oct – Riot Fest 2009

Pretty good show, glad I got to see the first punk band I really liked. Too bad they didn't play "Takin' retards to the zoo" but they did hit up "Bitchin' Camaro" so it was well worth it.

Teenage Bottlerocket was easily the best of the night, until they got fucking cutoff. fucking metro. fuck chicago shows. god damn curfew! 11pm all shows end, fuck off chicago!

Wed 16 Sep – Silversun Pickups, Cage the Elephant, Manchester Orchestra

Venue - This was the first major show here. Great Sound, Great Venue, CHEAP BEER compared to almost all other WI venues. You can freely go in and out which is nice too.

I won a contest and got to meet the band before the show. It was seriously 20 minutes of sitting/chilling with the band along with my wife. They we're awesome and so was the show.

Sat 8 Mar – NOFX, No Use for a Name, The Flatliners, The Copyrights

Awesome show - All the bands were great from the start to the end including the encore by LTJ?!?! :) "Al's War" was fucking killer!!!

RBF #1 for me, WTF - I guess that's what happens when you leave your box on all weekend at work with only 1 disc loaded on the playlist…shit…now look my groupings…wtf…
