IL/F/est/2/012: Boston? St. Louis? Tour?

2011 was a success in my book. I'd like to do a second. I'm thinking early or late summerish.
I offer St. Louis, because I know bands, venues, etc. and can handle lots of the leg work that I couldn't with Milwaukee or any other city.
Thoughts?

It would be cool if it was somewhere just slightly more east. I'd love to go, but I don't see myself making the 1,200 mile drive.

We're thinking of going on tour early next summer if we could align the two that would be awesome!

I'm thinking we just need a straight-up East Coast version, too. Between BigChiefBC and I, we have two bands who would probably be willing right there. Also, with Stompboxsonic, we've got a Boston-based fx-retailer who already has some event-scheduling cache. I'm sure that with a bit of thinkin', we could put something together. And that doesn't even begin to touch on our NYC / CT brethren.

Yeah man. Good idea. I need to get a band first. So pissed, the band I was joining broke up yesterday. Back to the drawing board...

Well shit, if we're the ones planning it, we can give ourselves as much time as we need... honestly, my band won't be ready to play anytime soon, since we're in the middle of a "revamp everything & come up with totally new songs" period. So... maybe Boston, Summer 2012?

I'd be down for Boston, if I'm still in the region.

Boston's a hike but doable, i'd prefer NYC as far as travel goes, but saint louis is a place i've never been or played a show so i still vote for there. As long as it's on the east coast, i'm down and i'm sure the band would be too!

I think we meant in addition to the St. Louis one, not instead of.
If we are going to do this, we should probably start a new thread so we don't hijack this one.

Ahhhhh too-shay, my bad. Maybe we should make an ILF tour, get 3 or 4 bands to do it, do like boston, chicago, st louis, atlanta, DC/richmond, or if some west coast peeps can help out we can head west.
