The Dead Milkmen Live at The Congress Theater Chicago


Double click the slide show for full screen and other options.


The Dead Milkmen rocked The Congress Theatre in Chicago Saturday night.   Despite a far from capacity crowd and a contingent of curmudgeons in the back complaining about the sound quality, the show was a blast from the past.    The front half of the auditorium was happily screaming along with the lyrics, crowd surfing, and thoroughly enjoying themselves.     The Dead Milkmen have their first new album out in 16 years.    Check out our prior coverage HERE and give them another listen.    The Dead Milkmen are not dead yet.

We had a music filled weekend.   Local Chicago boys, The Lawrence Arms with the Fat Wreck Chords label, opened for The Dead Milkmen.   They got the fans well warmed up and good to go.   I've gotta admit, the bodies were dropping into the photo pit at a good pace and I've never seen so many punk rock girls crowd surfing.   Fun times!
