The CrossRoads Bar and Grill

The CrossRoads Bar and Grill

The CrossRoads Bar & Grill celebrates the migration of music from the south to Chicago.  So why CRBG? The CBGB club in New York was a mecca for music. It started as a club that played Country, BlueGrass and Blues and ended up as a landmark where punk legends such as the Ramones started. We have no affiliation with the New York club, but we...

Reggie’s Music Joint

Reggie’s Music Joint

Reggies in the “south South Loop,” just east of Chinatown, is a peculiar three-in-one hybrid of music venue, record store, and restaurant/bar. On the “Rock Club” side, attendees will find mounds of metal and rock bands, handfuls of rap artists, and the occasional standup comedian. Unfortunately, the sound is subpar at best and a mess at worst, and the layout is so poorly designed that moving...

The Vic Theatre

The Vic Theatre

The Vic—shortened from “Victoria” on its official signage—is one of the oldest converted theaters in Chicago. Opened in 1912 and situated in the heart of Lakeview, this midsize rock venue (1,300 capacity) hosts a range of notable indie and smaller major-label bands, plus the occasional rock stars (e.g. Soundgarden) who want to play a more “intimate” venue.

The Mid

The Mid

If you’ve gone to see a big-name DJ or dance act over the past few years, chances are that you’ve ended up at The Mid in the meatpacking district on Halsted (if you were able to find it). Walk-able from Restaurant Row, this 800-capacity venue acts as a full-blown nightclub, from the disco-ball lighting to the snobby bartenders, button-down clientele, and front-door security (which, for certain...

Subterranean

Subterranean

Situated right next to Wicker Park’s infamous, traffic-clogging six-way intersection, Subterranean books all manner of rock, punk, and metal music plus the occasional rap or electronic act. Its bi-level layout (from levels two to three) is a bit peculiar—sort of a miniature take on the traditional balcony. Watching from upstairs can be nice if you can get a spot hugging the railing—otherwise it’s basically impossible, and...
