Umphrey’s McGee played a semi-private show at Chicago’s Park West last night. The performance was originally intended to be a closed ‘thank you’ show for volunteers of the Choose Chicago city project but some additional tickets were inadvertently released to the general public. As promised, the show featured the band’s new Chicago anthem, the appropriately titled “Chicago,” which was introduced by Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts. The single-set performance also featured Umhrey’s McGee’s other signature Chicago anthem, “In the Kitchen.”

In addition, near the end of the set, Chicago blues legend Buddy Guy joined the band on guitar for “Hoochie Coochie Man” and “Damn Right I Got The Blues.” Guy and members of the Windy City group Chicago contributed to the studio version of “Chicago.”
