UGH

DAMN!!! Sorry to hear that dude.
That sucks beyond belief.
By the time you land, get luggage, get taxi (Rental car), get to Mokena, etc, you might make it for half of IE's set.......
 
well, I never check luggage, and a fellow-neverboarder is picking us up, so we just might make it in time. At the rate this is going, I have a feeling I'm not going to remember tonight.
 
I leave in about an hour, so i made this!

My plane finally left Philly at 10:30pm Eastern... I landed at O'Hare at approximately 11:45 Chicago time. Central? Doesn't matter. Got to Mokena at 2-ish, since my ride stuck around for the majority of Iced Earth. I can't blame him. I didn't want to ruin HIS time.

So, I completely missed the first night of the show and all of the after-party sounds like it's in one room with a 21+ sign on it. faaantastic.
