Description of place

#23381 Rocking Out in a Historic Monument in Chicago, Illinois

Although historical theater restoration seems to be a trendy pastime these days, the Congress Theater has surpassed most of its competitors on every level possible. If you have a chance to see a live show here, don't miss it This place is like a giant haunted house, only it’s a haunted house where they let the likes of Nine Inch Nails and Billy Idol serenade you while you move from room to room. There is nothing here that doesn’t fit perfectly, from the grand ballroom foyer, to the glowing domed ceiling, to the cryptic VIP skyboxes. Just don’t stay too long after the concert is over, this place is creepy when it’s empty.
