After a successful escape from Minneapolis, we arrive in Chicago for the Green Festival, three years ago today. We’re in for the long haul–an outdoor show, after which the three of us play records deep deep into the night at Big Star. The next day we’re playing a Wheel show at Subterranean, which naturally is on the second floor. A couple of days earlier we received a really really nice email from M.E., suggesting we play “Sister Ray,” and somehow she is so persuasive, we’re willing to overlook that we don’t know “Sister Ray.” Eleventh Dream Day’s Rick Rizzo and Mark Greenberg help us out on guitar and organ, and I use a few pages of cheat sheets. “Sucking on my . . .” Line!
