Lollapalooza 2009

We played Lollapalooza in Chicago last year. The night before we played Randy dislocated his shoulder and had to go to the hospital, so he played the show in a sling and in a chair. It was the first time we played with Randy sitting down, I liked it.

While we were playing our set this guy jumped on stage, ran over and handed me a note. After he dropped the note off on my snare he was grabbed by a security guard and dragged off. See the pic below for the mental imagery:



Full on security grab shot



So since then I saved the note, thinking it was cool that he did that, he had a plan and then he executed it nicely. Also oddly enough we will run into people at our shows and they will ask about the guy and the note. I noticed it more frequently the last couple shows we played, and it made me want to find the note and share it.

NO.
We didn't play, Randy's shoulder was pretty messed up, we barely played Lollapalooza.
