    Comment by Big Muddy Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:00 pm

  8. The entire performance is a former governor reading proclamations and a sad kazoo playing in the background.

    Comment by NIU Grad Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:00 pm

  9. Since it’s Irish music, instead of U2 his band could be UAgain? Or the Citizens Ukulele Board.

  16. Blago’s Hare wins the internet today.

    Comment by City Zen Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:20 pm

  17. The “friends” is actually just Sheila Simon and her banjo.

    Comment by Reme Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:35 pm

  18. ===Sheila Simon and her banjo.===

    No, it’s not.

    - Ron Burgundy -

    Good stuff there. Along the lines of Sheila…

    A banjo song, no words, titled “Dancing With the One Who Forgot You”

    Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:44 pm

  19. Pat Quinn and friends (No Sheila Simon will not be appearing)

    Comment by Ducky LaMoore Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:45 pm

  20. WAIT! WAIT!
    Ron Sandack and I need to first strip before we watch Pat do his “performance”.

    Comment by VanillaMan Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:46 pm

  21. “Hey Pat! Play something by Bruce! You know, ‘the Boss’?”

    PQ: *death stare*

    Comment by Ron Burgundy Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:47 pm

  22. Pat?
    Do you know any Yanni?

    Comment by VanillaMan Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:49 pm

  23. We’re not sure if he’s any good, but he claims to be practicing night and day.

    Comment by Rich Miller Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:52 pm

  24. My favorite part of his set is when he throws all the instruments into a smashed pile, pours lighter fluid over it, and then Bruce Rauner steps in and burns down our government!

    Comment by VanillaMan Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:52 pm

  25. I hope Pat is wearing a shirt on stage, under his leather vest.

    Comment by VanillaMan Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:55 pm

  26. *Taking all requests. Make the will of the people, the law of the band*

    Comment by Ducky LaMoore Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:55 pm

  27. Actually “Born to Run” would be a good song for him, come to think of it.

    Comment by Ron Burgundy Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:57 pm

  28. There’s a typo on the sign - there’s no “s” at the end of the word “friend”, and by friend Pat means an imaginary friend, like his imaginary gubernatorial accomplishments.

    Comment by VanillaMan Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 3:58 pm

  29. The Band that Nobody Sent.

    Comment by Six Degrees of Separation Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 4:04 pm

  30. That cannot be Governor Quinn because Governor Quinn only knows one note!

    Comment by VanillaMan Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 4:05 pm

  31. There were 5 members in the band, but Quinn cut it back to 3.

    Comment by Rich Miller Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 4:06 pm

  32. I hear there’s turmoil within the band because Pat won’t pay them until they agree to cut everyone else’s pensions.

    Comment by Rich Miller Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 4:07 pm

  33. Quinn reportedly has difficulty booking repeat gigs because dozens of people wearing green shirts keep showing up to heckle him.

    Comment by Rich Miller Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 4:09 pm

  34. Rich, lol

    The band was asked to be a house band but they can’t stay in any one gig long enough before they start thinking about another gig

    Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 4:13 pm

  35. I just heard they cancelled. Couldn’t get equipment up the ‘ramp’.

    Comment by blue dog dem Thursday, Nov 10, 16 @ 4:29 pm

  36. You have all out done yourselves today…
    A good way to laugh out to the weekend….!!! :-)
