What a great week for concert goers! Rush Monday night at the United Center and Iron Maiden Wednesday at the Allstate Arena. Look for me both nights doing my show live from the respective venues. I'll have ticket upgrades, conversations with band members, live requests, post-concert Rock Blocks from both Rush and Iron Maiden and much more for you. Kelly the new Loop Rock Girl will even be riding shotgun. See you there!

Tom Keifer of Cinderella has damaged his vocal chords in band rehearsals and therefore will have to postpone the planned Cinderella/Warrant/Lynch Mob show next month at the First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre. Keep it locked on 97.9 the Loop for a possible future rescheduled date.

And finally, look for the Scorpions to officially announce their long-awaited return to Chicago August 10th at the Charter One Pavilion at Northerly Island. Once again, keep it locked on the Loop for all the details.
