St. Patty's Day is the day everyone else pretends they are Irish. I'm Irish all year so I don't usually celebrate the day unless I've got a show.

 

No gig this year so we're doing our normal Wed night practice, including with a female vocalist whose doing a few upcoming shows with us. After practice it's back home to bed by 11 and work the next morning.

St. Pat's in Chicago is a often a worse 'amateur night' than New Year's Eve.


Seriously, it's more than enough to make any sane person have ZERO desire to be out in public...

 

so true.i used to live downtown and it was just as you say.

dying a river green,WHY ?

Hell, I don't care about that aspect of it at all (And personally, I thought it was a nice tip of the hat to his hometwon when the Pres had the fountain at the White House dyed green last year, actually. Respect).

 

Anyway, no, it's the PEOPLE: the droves and droves of complete and total idiot yahoos who have absolutely ZERO connection to anything Irish, or for that matter, to anything GREEN, who feel that the only way to 'celebrate' St. Patty's is to start drinking at 10:00 AM the Friday before, and continue drinking though bar closing on the Sunday after, and do it ALL while acting like fools in public, cloggging up the streets acting like utter morons let loose from the zoo, etc.

 

I've no problem with getting your drink on and having a good time. I just don't need to see it 24/7 in front of me when I'm trying to get to and back around the city doing things like working, getting to gigs, etc.

 

For those that don't understand/haven't seen it; there are small parts of Chicago that on the weekend of St. Pat's look like Bourbon St. during Mardi Gras...and more often than not, I end up having to drive in/near those areas invariably.

 

Have all the fun you want.

Just try to keep it a bit more...contained, I guess.

Wednesday was practice until we took a last second St. Pats show minutes before playing last Friday. Can't wait to do it and waiting to be thrown up on at any moment!

 

To compensate for being sober on 'Hey I'm Irish day!', I've been drinking Guiness pretty much all this and last year.

a good time was had and never left the driveway.

what started out as a small get together broke out to a crowd of about 20.

i called it a night around 10:30 :facepalm:

woke up the next morning and about 10 people crashed on the wood floor, neighbors walked home and nobody got behind the wheel :thu:

when i told everyone to put their keys in this big bowl at the time they arrived i think they thought it was a swingers party :lol:
