John French Christmas Season 2002
This was a year in which my wife and I took a road trip to Chicago on the recommendation of Mr. Michael Glabicki of Rusted Root (while we were having dinner together one night) as they were playing two shows in-between Christmas and New Year's Eve at the Chicago House of Blues (like they are this year) --- We stayed at the Lowe's Hotel which is right next to the HOB and had a great time w/ the band and all over the city. When we were leaving after having stayed a week, the management at the Lowe's/HOB said that they should've booked our friends three (3) nights as it was the hottest ticket in town.
