Upcoming at Chicago's House of Blues...An Interesting (And Diverse) List

In March and April, Chicago's House of Blues venue will be hosting an impressive array of artists, ranging from some great Alternative acts to pure Pop and Rap artists. The full list of upcoming artists can be found here. The most noteworthy include:

On March 1 is Escape the Fate, a screamo act presented by Hot Topic. March 5 is Busta Rhymes. Kottonmouth Kings (rap-rockers that have a niche fanbase due to their, um, certain lifestyle) are in town the 11th. On the 17th, Q101 sponsors Hollywood Undead and Senses Fail.

Although you would never find me at a Kottonmouth Kings or a Hollywood Undead show (no offense) you will find me at the House of Blues on March 20 when I'll be rocking out with Mindless Self Indulgence. These punk rockers blend electronic beats, rap influences, and over the top antics to deliver an awesome live show. I can hardly wait!

In the following week, the House of Blues will also host Less Than Jake, Lady GaGa, and Katy Perry. In April also comes The Devil Wears Prada, 3oh!3, Forever the Sickest Kids, We the Kings, and Static-X. Tickets for the House of Blues normally cost between $20 and $30. Be advised that some shows are only 17+ and 21+, and the venue is standing room only. However, with such an impressive list, who can resist?
