7:00 PM – 8:00 PM | Chicago’s Very Own Band.......... Off Broadway!!
A late-'70s power pop group from Chicago. Much like Cheap Trick, Off Broadway played a quirky hopped-up blend of Beatlesque melodies and Move-like power. They wrote catchy songs and managed to sell around 200,000 copies of their 1979 debut album, On. In 1997, the band recorded and released their first record in 17 years, Fallin' In, and followed it with a live set in 1998, Live at Fitzgeralds.

9:15 PM – 10:30 PM |
National Headliners: SEVEN MARY THREE
"Be ready for the rock," mock-warns Seven Mary Three. In fact, from the opening salvo of the balls-out "Settle Up" to the aggro "Bark No Bite" to the emotive first single, "Without You Feels," Dis/Located is indeed "guitar-ded," full of "1970s dirge-y, dirty type of riffs," observes singer Jason Ross. The group's fifth outing captures the raw power of the literate, universally personal songs of band founders Ross, Giti Khalsa, Casey Daniel, and the lineup's “new” guitarist of four years, Thomas Juliano. Dis/Located's 11 tunes, in fact, represent the most immediate, from-the-gut collection in a stellar career that began with 1995's platinum-plus American Standard and its massive radio hit "Cumbersome," and was furthered on tours with Aerosmith and Matchbox Twenty and subsequent albums showcasing the young band's insightful, timeless take on rock.
