Very nice write-up in Chicago Tribune's Metromix - (came up as search result when I was researching on USA Today) metromix.chicagotribune.com/music/mmx-060202-lovehammers-marty-casey-chicago-tour,0,709836.story (looks like link's too long - will have to cut-and-paste) Looks like a warm welcome home for the fellas - looking forward to the reports from all of you attending events in the next few days. Especially liked this part - have read the play-by-play while it was happening (Go OJ-odie!!) "Due to Lovehammers' long-standing Chicago presence, loyal fan base nationwide and dedication to fans, Hammerheads across the country are buying tickets to multiple concerts in order to show their support. Days into the tour, one girl followed the tour bus for two hours from L.A., just to get an autograph, Marty says." And those of you who have seen/heard rumors about tensions between INXS and Lovehammers - "Even INXS guitarist Tim Farriss is a fan. 'We love 'em,' he told metromix in a phone interview. 'They're great, and I think they're having the time of their life at the moment.' And what does Marty think about his 'Rock Star' rival, J.D., and the new INXS? 'I think they slam,' he says. 'I think they made the right choice; I think J.D.'s working out well for them.'" CJ Depoe Bay Oregon

Loved the article...especially this quote from Marty... "I really love 'Clouds' because I think it's got some really mysterious feeling to it, and it gets me every time," Marty says. "Me too Marty...me too....

Loved this article. OJ-odie, what a star! It was so great that her efforts are being remembered and truly appreciated by Marty and the rest of LHs. So glad they are in Chicago now, just so they can play to the hometown crowd and many of their long time fans. Should help recharge their batteries a bit. And when I looked at some of those pictures that were taken at the Viper Room by the photographer, I get a rush just like the first time I saw Marty perform. That man is simply gorgeous!
