However, I won't be going to any of them because I can't justify the 10+ hours in the car (roundtrip) to see any of those bands. Of the 5 bands listed, I've seen "The Devil Wears Prada" in concert. I also can say that Devildriver played at Chicago Open Air 2017. I could have seen them playing from a distance, but I have no specific memory of that. I remember Alex and I went to Mass on Sunday morning, but I don't recall what time we arrived at the concert. Here is the lineup from that day:

All of that is nice to reflect upon as I think about going to see New Lingo at Pop's in Sauget, IL. This is a map from our hotel to the venus - a short 8 minute drive:
And this is what the band sounds like.
And here's some more tunes by the band.
