good old christmas break. plenty of time to be a hermit. plenty of time to stay up until five am and not leave my bed until the sun has already set. and also plenty of time to play hostess to some of my favorite chicagoans who came to visit me for the am taxi show! stephanie and claire got in town friday afternoon and we headed downtown a few hours later to the firebird for the one and only. to say that my circle of friends is obsessed with am taxi is quite the understatement. both sam and stephanie have been to close to thirty shows, and have been supporting the members, on one band form or another, for a good long while. i was a wee bit late to the taxi train, but better late than never. saying am taxi is rock and roll doesn't quite cut it. rock and roll is am taxi.
the architects were also on the tour and hailed from kansas city. great band. but am taxi stole the show and that's really all there is to say. they had a really great crowd there and lots of people were dancing and singing along. always a good sign when multiple people know your lyrics. the group of us girls had a lovely time and in the words of johnny, "things got weird."
