Stage Buzz: Pravda Records Anniversary at FitzGerald’s, Mac Sabbath, Pearl Jam, TLC
What do you get when you combine an iconic metal band with an iconic fast-food chain? Mac Sabbath. These self-appointed founders of “Drive Thru Metal” are known for parody versions of Black Sabbath songs, which include “Frying Pan,” (“Iron Man”), “Pair-a-Buns” (“Paranoid”), “Sweet Beef” (“Sweet Leaf”), and “Zipping Up the Uniform” (“Symptom of the Universe”). Celebrating ten years of munching and mayhem, the band will perform at Reggie’s Rock Club this Wednesday, August 28th, at 7:30 PM. Grab tickets while you still can.
Pearl Jam, one of the undisputed Big Four of grunge, is among the most celebrated rock bands. With more than 85 million albums sold worldwide, numerous charting singles, and award wins, the band has more than earned their legendary status. Songs like “Even Flow,” “Alive,” and “Jeremy” continue to resonate with fans old and new. And with their latest album, Dark Matter, their legendary status only strengthens. Hear the latest and greatest from Pearl Jam during their two-night stand at Wrigley Field on August 29th and August 31st at 7 PM. You can still get tickets here.
TLC suffered a great loss with the death of Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes in 2002. Yet, the group, now a duo, continues their legacy. To celebrate their long-lasting career, the duo will bring hits like “Waterfalls,” “No Scrubs,” “Creep,” and “Ain’t Too Proud To Beg” to the Ravina Festival in Highland Park this Saturday, August 31st at 7:30 PM. Tickets are available here.
