Lincoln Hall
Riot Fest 2010

Achtung punk rock enthusiasts! The annual Riot Fest concert series will bestow its snarling, three-chord, beer-swilling, band-filled, moshing, crowd-surfing, glory upon our city once again. If you need cheap accommodations, grab your favorite band shirt & book a room with us ASAP. The fest packs another stellar lineup of rock-n-roll: Bad Religion, The Lawrence Arms, Agnostic Front, The Bouncing Souls, Cobra Skulls, and The Circle Jerks are just a fraction of the massive lineup.
Things to do in Chicago September 2010
Chicago is becoming big music fest central. We know you’ve heard of Pitchfork and Lallapalooza, but we’d like to introduce you to a new concert series, NorthCoast Music Festival. This is a celebratory concoction of hip hop, electronic, dance and indy music occuring at Union Park Labor Day Weekend, which is just a quick train ride from our hostel. Check this fest out, musicians like De La Soul, Chemical Brothers, Lupe Fiasco, Moby, and Nas will be performing and you have the option of purchasing a 1 day pass for $35 or a 3 day pass for $75. Just because summer ends in September, doesn’t mean Chicago events cease as well….
