An open letter to Less Than Jake

On my way to the show :)

Yep. . I am a old school hard core fan of the band.  I have seen them somewhere around 15 times.  Seen them on Saturday . .. just now coming down from that high.  It was really great show.  Even if it did rain a bit. . .we got to "Pick your self up and come in from the storm."  Best and weirdest part, it was in the sand.  I got to be totally up front for like 3 songs before the circle pit in the sand got too wild and I had to move or get sucked in.  Gotta love those hard core Chicago Circle pits.  I have been to shows in more than a few places, but only Chicago has those circle pits really going.  I was pretty surprised that they got it going in the sand like that just standing in the sand all day was a work out, never mind all the jumping and I wore flip flops. .  managed to get out without any broken toes.  Yay!

Waiting in the rain, in the sand, with the sissy for the jolly good show

They say you can't go home again, but seeing them again sure felt like it.  Especially since they played so many awesome old songs.  I did like their new album, I was so happy, See the Light?  I had been praying for their salvation for a good long time and when I heard the CD I was so happy because I thought they had come to Jesus, and there was going to be good music in heaven.  Then I did some research and found out they found budda or some junk.  And I haven't listened to that CD since.  But its not just Bible thumper's that don't like it my sister totally turned away from the faith and she's seen you all more than I have and she don't like it either.  Couldn't really get her to elaborate other than saying that it sucks and she don't like it.  Now I don't know how much success that CD is having but the fact that your not playing in Warped tour this year and instead are playing and weird little dives in the middle of nowhere's ville where you have to try and be PG13 because there is a bunch of apartments next door has me thinking maybe it's not doing so well.

Go back to your roots.  You still got all that talent and all that drive,  I'd like a new CD please.  Also I was quite amused that your not supposed to swear and yet you played Fuck Doug and you never ever play Fuck Doug.  Did you get fined?  Did the cops in boo foo Egypt arrest you??? That was a super long drive but I am glad I made it.  Thanks for the memories.  I really hope you all pick yourselves up and come in from the storm.

:) gotta love the horns
