 Headed out from the hotel a little after 3:15, stopped here and there for a few errands, then got to the CTA around 3:45. Caught the next train in, got off and walked a block to Wrigley. Looked like only a couple hundred folks waiting for early entrance, and wouldn't you know, a few at the very front were friends waving at us to walk on up. Oh yeah! Headed out from the hotel a little after 3:15, stopped here and there for a few errands, then got to the CTA around 3:45. Caught the next train in, got off and walked a block to Wrigley.

-Soon enough it's time to head in. We negotiate the scramble in style, and by 4:45 we're planted, dead center, about 8' back from rail. Double plus good! Time to chill.+Soon enough it's time to head in. We negotiate the scramble in style, and by 4:45 we're planted, dead center, about 8' back from the rail. Double plus good! Time to chill.
  
-It's a long wait until showtime, but the crowd is merry, and it's not too hot today. It sprinkles for about 5 or ten minutes, but it's not serious enough to collect on the blankets or put on any layers over... My sun hat does double duty in admirable fashion!+It's a long wait until showtime, but the crowd is merry, and it's not too hot today.

 The stage is set up in center field; upon entering from the gallery beneath the bleachers, you cross over a makeshift platform built to cover the reliever's warm-up mound. It was funny to see folks posing for pics against the ivy-covered walls; one dude on our post-show CTA ride even had a wreath of purloined ivy wrapped around the crown of his hat. Fine evidence of the magic of MLB marketing and our susceptibility to collective nostalgia, no? The stage is set up in center field; upon entering from the gallery beneath the bleachers, you cross over a makeshift platform built to cover the reliever's warm-up mound.

 When the front line came back, they teased _Milestones_ during space ... nothing super coordinated, but definitely present to the discerning listener. When the front line came back, they teased _Milestones_ during space ... nothing super coordinated, but definitely present to the discerning listener.
  
-Hard to know what was going on with the _Franklin's Tower_ finale reprise -- could be the same signalling/lack of coordination issue that came up earlier in the set, where the band members aren't all on the same page, so someone blows it, and the instantaneous impromptu reaction is to roll around one more time to get things right. In any case, it was strange and unexpected!+Hard to know what was going on with the _Franklin's Tower_ finale reprise -- could be the same signaling/lack of coordination issue that came up earlier in the set, where the band members aren't all on the same page, so someone blows it, and the instantaneous impromptu reaction is to roll around one more time to get things right.
