And it’s not just your soul that's getting nourished—$1 from every ticket spins into arts education for Chicago's future scene-makers. So, while the mainstream masses are still nursing their day four hangovers, you'll be diving headfirst into a soundscape that makes the term "afterparty" feel like an understatement. Grab your tickets and prepare to be the envy of every indie kid that slept on this celestial soirée.
