After a mixture of carrot sticks and cheesedogs...

We've had a few crazy thunderstorms so far, here in Chicago!  The picture above is from the most recent, in which there were tornado sirens going off all around us!  We got quite a bit of rain that night (obviously,) and there are still puddles on the ground 3 days later.  Also this week, a pole-mounted electrical transformer decided to burst into flames after a violent explosion and scare the hell out of all of us who were around that particular window.  Click this sentence for a video of the immediate aftermath!  When all was said and done with that, we had lost one day of recording due to lack of power, but we gained a trip to the Lincoln Park Zoo!  Party on!
Recording is coming along great, the new songs are sounding AMAZING, and they're not even mixed or mastered yet!  So that is definitely a good sign.  Leigh just finished up tracking some vocals, and now there is a festive foosball tournament going on, as well as some pinball here and there.
I just added a few more pictures to the PopEvil.com photo section, and there will be more added to the Facebook page tomorrow at some point.
Tomorrow is an off-day, and we're going to go check out some of the action for Taste of Chicago!  Y'all know how we love food!  Aside from that, we're pretty excited about our upcoming show on Wednesday at Summerfest in Milwaukee with Cavo and Janus!  It's going to be a fantastic show, so if you're in the area, make sure you come out!
Alright, I have to go take a shower because I feel like a yeti.  Happy Weekend!
