If you're looking to catch some live music in an outdoor fest setting in Chicago this weekend, you have plenty to choose from thanks to the Taste of Chicago, which kicks off today, and West Town's second annual Green Music Fest, which runs Saturday and Sunday. For more information on cool bands to check out at each, see our respective posts here and here.
