And it is

excitement rains

as the countdown to the Super Bowl begins.

We will be out there

Monday morning. For the first time ever

we were out there on a Monday morning. Yeah, we usually fly out on Monday, but this time

we're getting in early. They're going to have the media day later that night.

And I'm looking at the temperatures, and it's essentially what it was here about two weeks ago.

Remember when you had a high of like 20, like 25?

There's one day it's a high of 19 and a low of four.

And then there's most of the days are going to be around 25.

There's one like out of nowhere day that's going to be like 39, I believe. Everyone I talked to that's been there loves it, even in the winter.

Everyone says that they love Minneapolis, even in the winter.

Got a friend who lives out there, grew up in Brooklyn, but moved to Minnesota and loves it.

He said he didn't believe how nice it was until he got there and he wound up staying there

I mean it's amazing I have a friend who was thinking about moving there too is currently

thinking about moving there I just can't think of anything it's known for other than like the

music but there's none of the bands I want to see playing there at the time so it's like I mean

Minneapolis you think of the city and it's like, okay, well,

the great, great bands came from there. Obviously, Prince, the replacements, there's a whole bunch of other ones. But what are we going to do when we're there? There's not really a lot to do in Minneapolis when it's cold. There's plenty to do. They have tons of bars, tons of things to do. There's bars in every city. Yeah, but I mean, downtown Minneapolis is cool, and there's not bars in every city. You should go to Knoxville. You should go. Oh, I've been to Knoxville. I've played in a few of those bars. Yeah. Well, then you played in one of the two. I've seen some meth heads get bloody skulls in some of those bars. Well, downtown Knoxville is a dump. Yeah, sure. Well, I mean, but Knoxville's not like a, that's not, Minneapolis is like in the top 20 markets, right? Like, that's a, maybe it's in the fringe. Yeah. No, Minneapolis, if you took the top 20 places, you'd want to be in Minneapolis. You'd want to be there more than Philadelphia.

You'd want to be there more than Houston, except for the weather. You'd want to be there more than a lot of places. Trust me. I'm just trying to figure out stuff to do while we're there, and all I keep seeing is Mall of America. So we know there's a lot of Applebee's there. Well, because we're staying at Mall of America. And by the way, there's not a lot to do, considering we have to get up at the crack ass and do start the show at 5 in the morning. Well, the first two days is going to be nice because we're, well, other than, of course, Monday night night. But, I mean, like Tuesday, there's not going to be a lot to do. We're going to kind of have a night off. well it's more like a day off because my night starts at three down there

I've already decided
