- Pet Lions, Blah Blah Blah, Caw! Caw! and Hollows at Subterranean - I recently touted indie pop group Pet Lions as one Chicago's best up and coming bands to watch. Their instantly memorable, highly catchy tunes are worth catching live, and with fellow locals Blah Blah Blah, Caw! Caw! (EP reviewed here) and Hollows also on the bill, tonight's show is bound to be great. Doors 9 p.m., show 9:30 p.m., $6, 21 and over. More info and tickets.
