Riot Fest takes over Douglass Park this weekend with headliners Tool, Twenty One Pilots, Alanis Morissette, Morrissey, Iggy Pop and Rise Against.
Between the lines: The festival has carved out a different lane from Lollapalooza, staying rooted in punk and alternative rock rather than chasing the latest pop stars.
Fun fact: Riot Fest also has a long history of showcasing big local acts.
So this week's quiz: How well do you know Chicago's punk rock history?
