It'll be fun to meet you Lizzie. I am not sure of the exact time we'll be lining up but definitely on the early side since we are determined to be in the front row.
Yeah, we wanna get there early too, it just depends on how long our lunch/dinner takes (Giordano's pizzas take 35-40 mins to make hehe). Last time we got jipped cuz they separate the guys and girls for security, and since there are more girls, all these guys got to cut and then saved spaces up front for their girlfriends. Luckily this time we've convinced my husband to come, but I'm not so sure he will be able to stake out a space big enough for 5 ppl!! haha! |

haha! That's pretty much all it is. I think you MIGHT have to go thru a metal detector, or the wand thing. they just separate you in case they DO have to do a "pat down" then you've already got a same-sex security person. And since guys don't carry purses, their line goes faster.
NOTE TO FEMALES: please bring simple, unstuffed purses and make the line faster for the rest of us! haha! there's always one girl who carries a duffel-sized bag full of crap that holds the line up.

As long as she doesn't make you carry any sharp or suspicious looking objects. |

| For the past 2 weeks, Cleveland HOB has been selling Travis tickets 2 for 1. Now they are trying to sell them in 4 packs. We may have a very intimate show indeed. |

I love that for the past two days I've been told I will stab someone, I'm sneaky, suspicious and Charles Manson. Love you guys too. :) LOL!
Lizzie, thanks for the info. Hope we get to see you there! Where exactly is that deep-dish pizza place you speak of? I was told by a co-worker it's the best and we have to go there.
I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! |

Giordano's!!! I personally think it is the best deep-dish restaurant in Chicago. Other ppl like Lou Malnatti's or Gino's East, but I think Giordano's has a better crust than they do. Um here is a list of locations . The one on Belmont is actually like 2 blocks from the Vic. That's where my group will be eating before the big event! |
