Well, well, well Illinois. What a fantastic event y'all put on. The Edge Eatery & Drinkatorium is called that for a reason…. it's on the border of Iowa and the Mississippi River hence the name. We also hear the place is the #1 Dive Bar in Illinois. That is a matter of opinion. It was a great place nonetheless.

Two large flatbed trailers were brought in to provide us with a killer stage for the show. There was even a pretty sweet ramp built just for us to load in. Thank you guys for arranging this for us. We were able to put on the big show for you because of that! Kudos!

The night started out with the sun setting and the air cooling down even more than it already was. A couple of fire sources were brought in to help keep the crowd warm. Kind of cool to see fire at the show… that has our wheels turning. One of our production guys DOES have his pyro license…. Hmmmmmm. Show upgrade?!

We hope Illinois keeps enjoying our shows. We rarely make it down your way. And even if most of you are Chicago Bears fans, that won't keep us from coming back. GO PACK GO!
