With the release of Rock Band 4, we're dusting off our plastic guitars and bringing back our original fundraiser where we move Rock Band from the living room to the concert hall, giving you the chance to rock out in front of a screaming crowd. We're dropping the tournament aspect of it, and replacing it with a night of live-band karaoke. On Thursday, November 12th, come to Emporium (Wicker Park) for our 6th annual holiday fundraiser.

Grab 3 friends for your band, pick your favorite song, grab the mic or a controller, and rock everyone's faces off with Rock Band 4, the latest in the popular videogame franchise. Costumes encouraged! Or take the stage and let our house band fill in for you on any instrument you might need. You can also just come to watch. The show alone will be a lot of fun to see!

Entry is free but a drinks/tokens package that comes with a Chicago Loot Drop 16oz pint glass is available via Brown Paper Tickets. If you just have to rock right away and want to ensure you get to take the stage, you can also donate to be on the priority band list and crowdsurf to the front of the line. Or just make an additional donation.
