So this weekend was Retro on Roscoe. It’s basically a local festival were cover bands from Chicago come and perform classics to modern day music live. There’s also lots of food, games, a car show and shopping stalls set up along the street. I went once on Friday, just doing a walk through and then on Saturday I was in and out of the apartment all day long doing bands and food. I mean why not? It was basically right out the front door and we were only two aprtments away from East Stage. Even if I stayed in my room I could still hear the music!
I think my favorites were the bands that covered a lot of 90’s music on Saturday. However, the 80’s were pretty good as well. I mean if I never watched an 80’s film I probably wouldn’t have known a lot of those songs. I did notice a lot of the bands today played a lot of repeats from the last two days, but it’s okay. They were all good songs and who turns away a free concert! <3
The cars at the show were all pretty nice. My dad would have loved to see them in person - I sent him some pictures though so he didn’t completely miss out. ^-^
Also apparently I live with the hulk. Em literally broke the refrigerator door. Like I was just in my room minding my own business drawing and listening to j-pop when I hear a scream and a thud - like it literally fell on the floor. We called the landlady and she says she’ll have someone out to fix it tomorrow afternoon, which is okay - I mean as long as my medicine is staying cold that’s all that matters. ^o^
I haven’t heard from the girls if they still want to go to the Little Mermaid Musical at Navy Pier. So it looks like I’ll be seeing if they still want too later - it ends this coming Sunday.
