Bands with multiple members usually means a night's work. And that was the case last Wednesday with Chicago. The band was opening their summer tour at Sangamon Auditorium on the campus of the University of Illinois-Springfield.

I was able to get photos and autographs with a little over half the band before the show and then the rest following the show. Unfortunately, founding member Robert Lamm was the lone "no" when asked for a photo. He said, "I just don't take pictures with people." He did sign a couple of photos, though.

In no particular order, here are James Pankow, Jason Sheff, Keith Howland, Lee Loughanne, Lou Pardini, Tris Imboden, Walt Parazeider, and Wilfredo Reyes.
