Share

The return of an R&B icon, a country music superstar, a controversial comedian, and a musical celebration of the Day of the Dead will keep you busy this upcoming week in Chicago.

Janet Jackson

I didn’t know how much I’ve missed Janet Jackson until she released this new song and album for the world reminding us all that not many R&B artists can match her talent. Catch her at The Chicago Theatre for a hit-filled concert as part of her Unbreakable World Tour.
The Chicago Theatre, 175 N. State St.
Nov. 3, and 6
Tickets from $ 50

 

Bill Burr

Bill Burr is part of a string of comedians who don’t mind being, and many times hate, politically incorrect when it comes to any subject. That usually only works out for a comedian if their funny and it helps Burr because he is hilarious. If you’re easily offended I might stay away from this one.
The Chicago Theatre, 175 N. State St.
Oct. 29 – 31
Tickets from $45

 

Luke Bryan

Luke Bryan is a country music superstar with over seven million albums sold across the globe. Bryan represents a new brand of country artist who don’t mind mixing other genres with his country foundation.
