The Barenaked Ladies showed off on Chicago's lakefront last night. They weren't naked and they weren't ladies, but they put on an awesome show. Below is a clip of Ed and Steve, two of the five band members, singing one of Mason's favorite songs. Enjoy.
Mason, her friend Nikki, and I braved the thunderstorm and saw the show at Charter One Pavilion on Northerly Island. Last night was a great escape. You can see all of the photos here. I've also added other photos from the memory stick there too.
Northerly Island was designed by Daniel Burnham in 1909, it was originally intended to be a public park. In 1930, the Adler Planetarium was constructed on the island. In the 40's, publishing mogul, Merrill C. Meigs convinced local and state governement to put an airport on the island to cater to Chicago's executives and elite. In 2003, Mayor Daley closed the airport and converted the island back to a venue for public enjoyment - Mason, Nikki and I sure did enjoy ourselves.
Max and Mason
