r/ChicagoConcerts

You knew the album he was touring on is mellow, you knew the venue was Auditorium Theater, you can see the staff changing the stage props nearly every song, why do you have to shout "we want the funk" or "play Free Bird" while he's talking to us before starting a song?

The band wasn't phased and it was good show, but jeez the heckler section on the right was annoying. I was embarrassed to be part of the audience this disrespectful to an incredible artist giving a thoughtful performance. This isn't Reggies or The Empty Bottle, we didn't pay ~ $100ish to listen to drunk Gen X uncs 😭

I will be camping the United Center box office. if my dad swoops in before to pay for my seats is that ok as long as I am waiting the whole time?

I’m going to Olivia Rodrigo on Monday night 10/12 and want to be able to get out easily… where is the best place to park where I won’t be stuck in traffic for 2 hours😀

Hi Livies!

I was able to get general admission for three for the first night of the Unraveled Tour in Chicago. I am taking my husband and his daughter (11) (we are all huge fans).

The United Center starts giving out numbered wristbands at 9AM on the day of the concert for GA, and we were wondering if this is worth it if we don't necessarily care for barricade; we do not want to be crushed and pushed around but still want to be able to see Olivia and the stage.

That being said, can we still enjoy the concert from the back of the GA pit do you think? Or should we lock in and try to get as close to barricade as possible?

We would appreciate any honest tellings of experiences at both barricade (adult diapers?) and back of the pit (can't see anything?).

Current economic circumstances and work obligations prevent my wife and I from going to Chicago to see OSEES at Thalia. It’ll be the first year in ten years I haven’t made it to at least one show. Well, enough of the crying. If you want to snag these and resell them, piss off. DM me with your story and I’ll decide who to send ‘em to. I contacted the venue and they told me I could send the digital tickets to whomever and it would work out. I’ll do my best to figure out that piece once these are claimed. Free, no strings attached attached, just want them to go to some true fans or first timers who have yet to experience the magic of OSEES firsthand. Cheers!

Hello, I am planning to attend the Gods Of Chaos festival on Halloween. It is a 17 + show but you can have a parent or guardian present to get in. How extensive is security? I am planning to bring my dad and my friend with, and just say that my friend is my brother or something to get him in. Let me know what I can do to get him in.

Who else is going to see Mastodon w/ Deafheaven and Alcest at The Riv tonight? I'll be there in a Chat Pile shirt.

I also think the Riv has gotten better post covid. Not my favorite but better than Aragon imo.

I'm going alone and wouldn't hate meeting up with people! 35/f :)
