Well, don't I feel sheepish, that should read the Great Midwest Boardie Meet-Up.
Also, you're welcome Sam and Nance!
Woefully short heads up notice: My baseball savvy friend and concert escort just told me the Cubs are playing at home today at 12. Our venue is nearly on top of Wrigley, so people will likely be in their cars leaving as we are in our cars arriving all in that area all at once. Traffic suckage. My buddy is checking on train schedules and the like.
Also, in general, non-Chicago area people - if you don't like the weather here, wait 5 minutes. Layers! The key is layers!
OKgottaGO kthxbai!

Oh my goodness. What a night! So great to meet everyone! I took notes, so I should be able to do some kind of write-up, but please post your own in the meantime. I need to go to bed soon. I can't afford to start this week tired. :)
For now, just remember: "This is NOT where we parked!!!" and "Shut up, I'm teaching!" and confetti in the whiskey and Damian aiming his lasers at Andy's face and Tim doing a Chicago accent: "Next time we should do this with beers!"
We also learned that OK Go's first-ever CD release party was at the Metro. "This place is magic."
Also, the laser guitars are simply bitching.
I posted a few photos here.
my favorite line of the night…
my pics here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=45014&id=1667002153&l=ff653cff3bI can't remember anything about anything right now. But, I had a fucking blast. I'm so happy to have seen everyone who made it out! I have loads of pics from the night, but I'm a tad bit, um, exhausted, so there's no way I'll be able to resize, upload and post tonight. Perhaps tomorrow night. Hopefully.
In the meantime...

hahahaha yes!!!! Lovely signs <3 What beautiful boardies we have!
Hope you all had a wonderful time! Sounds awesome. Neeed picssssss.
Okay, now that I can think a bit more clearly... I just posted my write up of the first bit of the night. WAY to long for the message board, so here's the link to my LJ, should you be interested. There are three entries, the link is for the first.
Please let me apologize in advance for any wrong names, false impressions and down right "wtf was she thinking"-ness.

so very sad i missed this
I was very sad you missed it, too. We looked for you until we had to go into the venue.
To be honest, I almost forgot about the signs. Good thing I saw them sitting there and remembered before we had to leave to actually go and see the show. Yeah, my mind was racing one thousand miles an hour and there was no way I would have remotely thought of that.
I'm still glad we got to see you briefly after the show!
i got there about 10 to 6, was shocked when i didn't spot you guys at the front of the line, now i know why…
and yeah, definitely glad i saw you briefly after the show…
Just another shot. Still very tired. Sleepy time now.
And because I am a nerd, I had some of us pose like the boys did here.
Also, you can check out the rest of the Boardie pics by clicking here. And the show pics are here.
well no wonder i couldn't find you during the show, was looking for you in andy land... great pics...
Thanks!
Yeah, we got into the venue after let in and Andy-land was full. But there was some sweet open space in Tim's Tundra, so we went there.
hhahahaha!! I just cracked up when I saw this. Good likeness guys.
You gals are absolutely amazing! Honestly, I am ITCHIN' to read about your adventures! I am so sad I missed it! Btw, THANKS, Becky for my new avatar pic!! :D
And darbs, this is just for you:
