As a part of the World Music Festival, Tortoise will be playing a live show tonight in Millennium Park. Show begins at 7pm at the Pritzker Pavilion, the new hi-tech band shell that makes Grant Park's Patrillo Band Shell look like ass. Now here's the best part...the show is FREE.
As much as I try to avoid downtown events like the plague, I have to admit that the Pritzker Pavilion is a beautiful outdoor performance space. We can only hope that they'll start booking some high profile shows there...remember when Radiohead played Grant Park? Great atmosphere, great sound, a beautiful back drop...how great would it be to get more outdoor tours that right here in the city?...instead of having them an hour south of the city in the debacle of a venue known as the Tweeter Center. Keep your fingers crossed...
