1. See Dan Auerbach, best known as one half of the Black Keys, as he’s on the road behind his new solo album, Waiting on a Song. He plays the Riviera Theatre tonight; doors open at 6:30pm and tickets are $39.50.
2. One of our favorite theater shows of 2017, Haven Theatre’s We’re Gonna Die, took the form of a rock concert full of cathartic songs about death and mortality. It’s back for a brief encore run at Steppenwolf’s 1700 Theatre. Tonight’s show is at 8pm and tickets are $18.
3. Catch a solid weekly comedy showcase at Wrigleyville’s Gman Tavern—Best Night Ever is put together by a discerning crew of local stand-ups who take their bookings seriously. The 8:30pm show is free.
