Chromeo Day 14, Drive to Chicago Part 2

So we're starting to lose our minds a little. The hours tick by pretty slowly on a 36 hr drive. There's only so much music you can listen to, movies you can watch, jerky you can eat, etc... before you want to jump out. But, we keep on trucking.

The highlights of today's drive were stopping at Cracker Barrel for breakfast, a classic, and stopping by Guitar Center in Davenport, IA to buy guitar polish. We really searched hard for a reason to take a break, as I'm sure you can tell... The fun part was the guys are on the cover of the Guitar Center magazine this month, so on the way out, a guy from the drum dept. ran out and asked for autographs, claiming no one that mattered ever stopped at the GC in Davenport, IA. We believed him without question.

We hopped back in the van and made it through the final leg of the journey. Took about 36 driving hrs, maybe another 4 hrs of breaks to make it to Oak Brook, IL, which is still 45 mins outside Chicago, but we didn't want to go right in to town to fight for hotel rooms. Everything was jammed because of Lollapalooza.

So Oak Brook it is. We found a Giordano's Pizza place for dinner, a place to hang out after and all was good. Again, not too late, we have an early day. Have to be at Lollapalooza around 10am to check-in. Should be amazing...
