Jersey Watch: Pitchfork Music Festival

As you know, we here at Rainbows in Disguise were at Union Park in Chicago for Pitchfork Festival this weeknd, and one of the things we did was scope out the hipster fashion. Essentially, the sea of hipsters meant a lot of crazy outfits, but one thing we didn't expect was some sweet NBA throwback jerseys. i myself was wearing my Jason Williams Kings jersey on Sunday, but we never could have expected the multitude of sweet jerseys that would come.


Grant Hill, teal Pistons jersey (one of the ugliest of all time


It took us a while to figure out this one, as he had a backpack on. We forgot Rodman was on the Lakers!


A good old school Reggie Miller jersey


Probably the best jersey of the weekend: Big Country


i couldn't find a picture of it in black, but you get the idea: Ron Artest, pre-insanity


Penny Hardaway


Everyone loves a rainbow Nuggets Jersey


Charlotte Hornets were represented well: First Muggsy Bogues...


...but Larry Johnson too?! Too good to be true.


Chris Webber from way back in the day


Probably my favourite of the weekend, Brian Grant!


Lots of Jordan, naturally, in Chicago, but only one warrants mentioning:


Last but not least, your boy Cadence Weapon putting on his Barkley face:



That's it for now, but that's a pretty damn good collection of throwbacks!

Hi folks - I’m a singer/songwriter in the Chicago area. You can see who I am and what I'm about by looking at www.mythicfigs.org - I'm the keyboard player in the
red hat in the pic that's up on the mainpage.

I found you bc I’m a stickler for
giving credit. Working on something utilizing the phrase "Rainbows in Disguise"
and considering it as a title - and it sounds too good not to have been used - so I googled.

Do you have any problem with me using it? If/when it's recorded I'll reference to this blog, of course. Meanwhile, FYI - Context of my use of the phrase, from work in progress:

We are living proof of that phenomenon called Life

Living proof / of that which has been given

And who's to say that Butterflies aren't Rainbows in Disguise

And who's to say / the Fireflies aren't Fairies?

Pls let me know - thanks!

Hi, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam responses?
If so how do you protect against it, any plugin or
