According to a report in the Chicago Sun-Times, it is expected that the Dave Matthews Band as well as Billy Joel and Elton John will be performing at Wrigley Field in Chicago this summer despite concerns that have been expressed by Lake View neighbors in years past.

Reportedly, alderman Tom Tunney is planning to introduce a night game Chicago Cubs ordinance exception at an upcoming City Council meeting that would allow the shows to take place.

According to the report in the Sun-Times, the Cubs last summer held three unprecedented shows at Wrigley field in one week. One of the concerts was by Rascal Flatts and two from Joel and John. Tunney at the time promised neighbors who were concerned about it that if it didn’t go well that there wouldn’t be any additional concerts.

Reportedly, Tunney this week said the experiment of three concerts had been very successful that it was worth repeating the experience.

Reportedly, Joel and John are scheduled tentatively to perform on July 7 at Wrigley field, with Matthews also expected for headlining September night concerts on Friday and Saturday evenings with dates still to be determined.
