Chicago Theater: Eddie Vedder

Last night I went to the Chicago Theater to see Eddie Vedder on his solo tour. The show was good but not nearly as good as the last time around.  I could complain about the beer being split on me, the crazy old lady in my row or the grown men who feel the need to scream in a primal way at a man playing a ukelele but I won’t.  Overall it was solid and it’s always nice to be in the Chicago Theater.  I wonder if when people from other generations go to see their acts in theaters are there still people screaming?  For example Neil Young played at the same venue earlier in the year, were there guys screaming at him during his show?  I just wonder at what age this ends?  Does the experience ever change?

Last night Julie and I went to the Chicago Theater for Conan O’Brien’s Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour.  The show was basically a variety show/concert with altered skits as not to infringe on NBC’s Intellectual property.  For example the Masturbating Bear was now the Masturbating Panda Bear.   By far the funniest skit was the Walker Texas Ranger Lever, I laughed so hard I literarily almost choked . The band was great and inflatable bat from Meat Loaf’s ‘Bat Out of Hell Tour’ was hilarious.
