About this concert
When the inaugural Chicago Bourbon & Barbecue Fest makes its post-Labor Day debut as the Windy City’s newest street happening, expect plenty of barrel-aged Southern bourbon whiskeys and finger lickin’ meats to entice visitors to this early September happening on Roscoe Street.Beyond ticketed afternoon bourbon tastings and plenty of mouth-watering chicken, ribs (and more), there will be two stages of rockin’ music. One will have a decidedly country flair. The other will feature top local tribute bands, like 97Nine.

97 Nine Biography
97Nine (ninety-seven nine) is the premier classic rock cover band in the Midwest. This supergroup came to fruition when singer Mark O’Dette and drummer Michael Bragg brought together bassist Danny Weymouth, guitarist Gino Buonamici and keyboardist Mike Vermeland, and the quintet began rocking audiences with the most memorable anthems from the 80’s 90’s and today. Having all grown up listening to Chicago’s Loop 97.9FM rock radio, these guys take the stage each night and truly re-create that once visceral experience we all had with the music of an unmistakable era. Boasting countless years of experience honing their craft, these four brothers-in-arms command any stage with their unmatched energy and skill.
97Nine play classic arena rock like no other band can play, with that infectious energy and passion you grew up loving so much. We dare you not to pump your fist.
