This was my 8th time seeing AIC since 1991 and it was another excellent show. I was front row between Mike and William. It was great to hear A Looking In View but I was disappointed that they dropped The Last Of My Kind. Between the St. Louis show and the Chicago show I got to hear both of them, so that is cool. I was really hoping that they would play Dirt but I missed out on that one again. I know they played it at least a couple of times on this tour. I also did not get to hear Love, Hate, Love at either show, but the set list is great so I really can't complain.
The crowd was definitely into it. The band commented on how great the crowd was a number of times. The place was packed and it got very warm towards the end of the show. There were a few crowd surfers but not much of a crush. The Aragon is a cool place to see a show. The only downside is that the stage is so high. I swear it is probably 7 feet tall. It makes for a rough night on the neck if you are up front, but it probably makes it easier to see the band if you are back in the crowd.
I ended up with 3 more picks and I gave one to a friend that was back further in the crowd. I also had a hand on a drum stick but could not hold on to it. That is the 3rd time that I have just missed out on a stick, ha ha. Great show and I can't wait to see them again.
One funny side note, it was 60 degrees and sunny when I left my house. 3 hours later when I got to Chicago it was 30 degrees and snowing! My sinuses were killing me! I waited in line for about 45 minutes and it was 25 degrees by the time the line finally started moving. It was crazy. :lol:
