Lupe Fiasco Show Moved, No Longer Free

We were excited about the prospect of a free Lupe Fiasco show in Grant Park, complete with back-flips and tongue twisting mind-bending rhymes, but organizers announced today that "in an effort to deter overlap with the Taste of Chicago music stage, the concert will move to the Chicago Theater." The upside? Lady Sovereign has been added as an opener and the sound at The Chicago Theater kicks total ass. The downside? The show is no longer free and tickets start at $20 a pop. While a free show in the park would have been nice we'll still be there front and center on June 26 at the new location.
