Austin's Fuel Room - Libertyville, ILWhen we talk about concerts in Illinois, Chicago is the only city that comes to mind, as most of the concerts are situated here in Northern Illinois, although there are some in Central and Southern Illinois as well. That’s not surprising as it is one of the largest cities in the US. You can hardly find a musician/band that hasn’t performed in Chicago. Take for instance Fall Out Boy, the band which is from Glenview, Illinois. Other notable bands that performed in Chicago include All Time Low, A Day to Remember and Metallica. Perhaps it’s not the first time that you have visited a concert in Chicago. There are a lot of venues worth mentioning, such as Wrigley Field, Soldier Field, UIC Pavilion and House of Blues Chicago.
