That's your chance to see them. AMAZING. You won't believe what you are seeing.

So they are a Chicago cover band? Thanks but no thanks.

Not that one would want to, but you can almost see the real current iteration of Chicago for those ticket prices.

Yeah at the risk of being ridiculed we saw Chicago and REO last summer cheaper than that.

Nothing wrong with that, Mike.

A few years back, I "saw" Chicago at Ravinia. Couldn't see the stage, but they sounded pretty good. An affordable lawn ticket to go with the MANY beers in the cooler made for a fun night.

Quote:
In just three short years, Leonid & Friends has blown the minds of legions of fans with their uncanny ability to capture the spirit, musicality and fire of American supergroup Chicago.

And what is even more stunning is that Leonid & Friends hasn’t seen Chicago perform live, yet replicates the band’s complex arrangements amazingly note for note.

"Chicago has never been in Russia and none of us have attended their concerts," said Leonid Vorobyev, a multi-instrumentalist who is the band’s leader. "We have only audio records and videos (to help us learn Chicago songs)."
So they are a Russian Chicago coverband. Thats....cool?

Tribute bands are pretty common...many are very good. I've not seen this band but have heard they're amazing.

That being said...this crosses my line of what I'd pay for a cover band. If they stuck to Chicago prior to 1976 before they jumped the shark...I'd be a little more supportive.

This one is good. This is a growing trend of high end cover "performers". I guess a group of them spawned from some Vegas act.
