Now, I guess it's owned by Jiffy Lube. I would be there tonight but for the cold.. I have arthritis and can't take sitting in the cold for long. Iwish it had been in the afternoon, but it's gonna be freezing tonight.

Jiffy Lube is just making money off of this, just as nearly all television stations make money off of elections.

venues have the dumbest names... I think my favorite is the 1-800-Ask-Gary amphitheater. God help you if you are a roadie named Gary and are playing that venue.
