Yea, they're kinda a fun, locally well-known (local as in downstate IL and this side of Iowa and Missouri) band. Looks like they're based out of Mt. Sterling, IL and they usually end up playing in Macomb at least a couple of times a year for various things (they were here in April at The Outskirts). You can see their future and past tour dates here: http://www.bandsintown.com/MaddHossJackson
I think they're good for a group of tailgaters having a fun time.

Looking forward to having you with us, yokedneck. Any predictions?
Hope to get out there tonight myself - love watching our 'Necks play. Here's hoping the offense lives up to this year's expectations, and that the defense shows lots of talent from the up and comers.

A leatherneck win. Still learning about this team/conference. Hoping this is the breakout year. Season opener with must win implications.

Half hour left until I can head on out of my office, run home, grab a bite to eat, change into my light colored Leatherneck gear (still supposed to be 90 degrees at kickoff....crazy), and head out to the stadium. I think a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen might be a necessity today.

Not sure if I'll have enough time to eat there though, maybe I'll just grab a sandwich and head over to the field. I'm a band guy, gotta go watch pregame.
