Thank you, Bang! This was hugely helpful.

Man, USC's commencement is on May 15, so all the hotels in that area are booked up solid that weekend.

Dangit!
Maybe the fellas will ride the train through the Midwest from LA > NY and can wave as they pass me in Chicago.

Next time.

Re: Underworld Live 2020 Tour Dates
I cannot for the life of me wonder why they do not play Chicago. Setlist.fm lists 32 gigs played in the USA since that 2002 tour when they played in Chicago.

2003: Coachella, New Jersey, Miami, SF
2007: NY, Boston, Denver, LA, SF, SF
2008: Baltimore, New Jersey, Atlanta, Miami
2009: Las Vegas, Oakland
2010: LA, LA, San Diego, SF, NY, Washington DC
2011: Miami
2015: LA
2016: SF, LA, Coachella, Oakland, LA, Coachella, NY
2017: Miami

Re: Underworld Live 2020 Tour Dates
It really is baffling why Chicago keeps getting passed over. At one point, I had heard rumors that there were issues with promoters and stuff like that, but surely those sorts of things could have been resolved over the last 17 years...

Compared to the Fox Theatre's yes it is much larger, but I was making the comparison to the Hollywood Bowl Show - which they sold out 5 years ago and that place holds over 17,000. I've seen them at the Bowl twice, but I favor the indoor venues. The Shrine Expo is a long hall with a balcony that circles from either side of where they usually set up the stage. I'm not sure if it'll be any different for UW. The key is to get up front or close to the stage from the balcony. I don't believe they have speakers at the end of the hall and from the far end it will echo. It's definitely not the venue I would choose to see them at, however, it's my only option and I couldn't wait for them to come back. My raving days and bouncing off other body days are over, so I'll likely be up in the balcony, hopefully rail side to get a good view. Doors open at 8pm and they're scheduled to go on at Midnight. Nuts!

Add me to the list of bewildered Chicagoans. I’d love to know what the issue is.

I feel for ya. Detroit was already booked up as well, presumably for regular festival-goers and the holiday weekend. I tentatively reserved a room, but I can get a hotel PLUS airfare to Toronto for the same cost. Yikes! Hope you find something!

Went to see if floor seats were available on a lark and wow.
Only GA Balcony is still available. A far cry from earlier days.
