Chicago Performs a Medley of Their Hits | A Capitol Fourth 2026

Can anyone confirm the names of the members of Chicago who participated in the concert last night at the Capitol?

There were two "old" guys on brass but are those the "replacements"?

Big Wheel Keep On Turnin'

Today's Big Wheel was a jaw-dropper, to me.

The first contestant spun the wheel and got 70 cents.

She chose to spin a second time and went over.

I didn't think it made any sense and a quick search online seems to confirm my suspicion. Was she wise to spin a second time?

(Either the 2nd or 3rd person spun and advanced.)

Choice Result
Stay on 70¢ 35% chance the next two players both score lower or bust. 65% chance one of them beats 70¢.
Spin Again 65% chance of busting instantly. 35% chance of landing on a safe space (5¢ to 30¢).

But not like Charli XCIX?

But I don't know who Charli XCIX is, or I do, but how is she similar? Never explained.

City Councilor Ed Flynn (South Boston, Chinatown, Downtown, South End) tomorrow will ask for a hearing to consider blocking construction of new water- and electricity-sucking data centers in Boston.

In his formal hearing request, Flynn says Boston needs to carefully consider the ramifications of massive computing centers before just letting them be dropped into the city.

I think we're getting to the point that almost all of the great performers from the 1970s have been inducted (although many would disagree). RRHOF needs to move on to the 1980s and 1990s ...

Let's do these and then just move on before it gets embarrassing.

I'm basing my suggestions on the main criteria of musical excellence, influence, and impact.

I'm picking these for the performers category but maybe some are better fits for the other ones.

In no specific order:

The Carpenters

Jethro Tull

Three Dog Night

King Crimson (no idea, I've never heard one song by him/her/them)

Grand Fuck (Railroad) I mean .. I'm Your Captain?

Maybe not:

Casey Kasem (Ertegun award)

Boston (eh .. maybe?)

KC & The Sunshine Band (I dunno; I'm drunk)

Barry Manilow (sorry; I'll let myself out)
