My favorite place to see bands. Both ticket prices and sound are pretty good, and the beer selection/price is excellent for this type of venue. Plenty of space for large crowds, but doesn't feel too empty when there isn't one, perhaps because it's pretty dark inside.
The bathroom is always working (cleanliness is questionable) and the staff are definitely used to large crowds. Also close to public transportation; parking is so-so, ranging from easy to driving around forever.
A must-go in Chicago
