Top Chicago Concert Venues

We like this venue and you should too!

The Rolling Stones and local legends The Smashing Pumpkins played here. They have all kinds of music here. Anything from Rock, Hip-Hop, Indie, Punk, Jam Bands, Folk, Metal, Funk, R&B, and even done some comedy nights and burlesque shows.

Chicago community live music bar and venue. It's "Chicago's Most Loved Small Venue" here's why we agree: http://bit.ly/IylNq6

Lincoln Hall is one of my favorite mid-sized venues in the Windy City. The combination of acoustics, setting and consistently great lineup of emerging local and touring bands makes it a must-experience venue for any live music fan.

Old Town School of Folk Music is the largest independent community arts school in the United States. Over 200 performances annually in one of the finest concert halls in Chicago, Old Town School enriches the lives of over 100,000 patrons each year. Here's why we did it: http://bit.ly/IrxP6k

Great new venue that has a record store Record Breakers attached to it too.

Schubas Tavern rocks for Live Music Nightly. Modern music in a classic, intimate and unforgettable saloon atmosphere. Check out the Harmony Grill for a pre/post-show snack!

The multilevel layout and regular bill of emerging music makes Subt's a very cool place to catch a show. It also used to be a brothel. http://bit.ly/subtbrothel

Love this place! I've seen many a memorable show here. The Abbey has live music most nights, featuring local, regional and national acts from indie rock to traditional Irish music.

great venue to see independent bands who rock live. I've been to a lot of amazing shows here. http://bit.ly/emptybottlelivefix
