Three reasons to see Snoop Dogg at the Congress Theater tonight…
1. For all his movie appearances, commercials, reality shows, and general ridiculousness, it’s always good to remember that Snoop Dogg is actually a really talented rapper.

The air is getting chilly, the leaves on trees are changing – yes autumn has come to Chicago. That of course means only one thing: It’s time to starting making plans for which concert to go to on New Year’s Eve. Several acts have announced plans to hosts shows in Chicago for the last night of the decade.
UPDATE: Chicagoist reports that The Jesus Lizard will headline The Metro’s NYE show. The show is 18+, and tickets go on sale this Saturday at noon. Additionally, the Jesus Lizard dates on November 27 & 28 at the Metro are sold out.

According to a video posted at Beastieboys.com, Adam “MCA” Yauch has developed cancer in a gland and lymph node in his neck that will require surgery and radiation treatment in the coming weeks.
Yauch and bandmate Adam “Ad Rock” Horovitz appear in the video where they also disclosed the cancelation of the band’s upcoming tour dates and a push back of the release of their forthcoming album “Hot Sauce Committee Part 1″ originally scheduled to be released on September 15, 2009.
This likely means their headlining spot at Lollapalooza as well as the pre-festival show August 6th at the Congress Theater will no longer take place.
There’s been no official word yet, nor any information on possible refunds but stay tuned to www.loudlooppress.com for updates as they come in.
