Description: ChicagoFest was a summer music festival established in 1978 in Chicago, Illinois. It was a two-week event held annually at Navy Pier that featured sixteen stages, each sponsored by a national brand and a local radio station sponsor, that broadcasted live from their respective stages. The stages were: Rock, Classic Rock, Country, Blues, Comedy, Roller Disco, Pin Ball Arcade, Jazz, Children's, Variety, Ethnic, as well as a main stage seating 30,000. There were approximately 600 live performances by headline artists each year, making ChicagoFest an extremely popular event. The festival moved to Soldier Field in 1983, but sadly, lost a lot of the magic that came with it being on the water at Navy Pier, so that would be the final ChicagoFest.

Description: On July 12, 1979, 48,000 fans packed Chicago’s Comiskey Park for a doubleheader that included a promotion involving blowing up disco records. The event devolved into a fiery riot when crazed rock n' roll fans stormed the field as part of an anti-disco promotional event when a local disc jockey took the field between games to destroy the records listeners had brought. Once the crate of disco records had blown up, the crowd chanting 'DISCO SUCKS' cheered uproariously and began taking the field. From there they began throwing records and cherry bombs, tearing up the field and stadium facilities and otherwise devolving into an all-out riot that ended up with the Chicago PD riot squad being called in.

Description: WMET originally hit the air on March 9, 1959, as WDHF, owned by Hi-Fi systems and record store owner James DeHaan. Its call sign stood for DeHaan Hi-Fi and operated out of DeHaan's store in Evergreen Park, Illinois with its transmitter and tower in Oak Lawn. The station was primarily an easy listening format and would eventually go to a Top 40 model after changing ownership a few times. In 1976, the station's call letters were changed to WMET, while retaining its top 40 format and by 1979 had embraced an album-oriented rock (AOR) format.
