Hello again faithful readers. I am on my way to pick up a scalped ticket to what's supposed to be the craziest festival chicago has to offer. For days I've heard warnings about the crowds and the heat, and with this year's expected turnout of 75,000 people in 95 degree weather, I'm expecting the worst. Which hopefully means the best. Good luck to everyone else going. More to come...
