I don’t think the piece is anti-Chicago. I feel sad about the way things are going here … Extremely well-known problems in Chicago which I didn’t invent … I object to the premise of your question. What I suggest is that there is a fear that is haunting Chicago. For anyone to say that no one has ever thought of this, of the drop in population and the problems with crime; … that Chicago could end up like Detroit; that this has anything to do with hating the city, I find bizarre. … Am I congratulatory and boosterish? No. The reaction here proves my point. Can Chicago not take criticism? Is there only one conversation to be had in the city as in “Go Chicago?” That was the point of my piece.

Him and Taylor Hawkins dressed up in vintage Rush atire and performed overture at Rush’s induction into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. Hilarious. As a side note, I continue to be jealous of much rock n roll goes on in Dave Grohl’s life. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)

ethanjohnluck: Oh man, I’m getting old. As an 18 year old, I never thought I would have recorded an album and would write about it 15 years later. For those that don’t know, The Dingees was the first touring band I was in. My first band to record an album. My first band on a label. My first band that did… I love this band and played this record hundreds of times. ...

Pro tip. On the desktop we’re mostly limited to using iTunes for music playback (aside from streaming services). If you don’t like iTunes, good luck finding a better alternative. Thankfully the situation is different on an iOS device. Don’t like apple’s music app? Simply fire up the AppStore and download a 3rd party music player. I recommend checking out Ecoute, Track 8 , Groove 2.
