SUMMARY:Brad Williams:  The Growth Spurt Tour
DESCRIPTION:Brad Williams:  The Growth Spurt Tour appears at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL on November 20\, 2025 at 7PM! \nPound for pound\, Brad Williams is the funniest comedian in the country right now\, and has become one of the most in-demand comedians working today. Williams started doing stand-up comedy as a teenager and has been touring successfully ever since\, routinely selling out prestigious venues all over the country and world. \nWilliams has parlayed his live performances into a multitude of stand-up television appearances\, including The Tonight Show\, Dave Attell’s Comedy Underground\, and Jimmy Kimmel Live. His first one-hour special\, Fun Size\, was the highest rated special on Showtime\, and a year later\, he followed that up with his second one\, Daddy Issues\, which was even more successful than the first. His third special in three years was an uproarious one\, hosting some of the edgiest comedians in the country from the prestigious Montreal Just For Laughs Festival. His last groundbreaking special on Netflix\, The Degenerates\, garnered more huge ratings and rave reviews. \nAlso an accomplished actor\, Williams has appeared on numerous TV shows and feature films\, including FX’s Legit\, Sam and Cat\, Mind of Mencia\, Pitboss\, a recurring role on the Hulu original show Deadbeat\, and memorable roles in a plethora of movies\, including Little Evil\, produced by Scott Stuber (Ted)\, as well as the Netflix original Christopher Guest film\, Mascots\, and most recently Reno 911: It’s A Wonderful Heist. \nRecently\, Brad became the first stand-up comedian to headline a Cirque de Soleil show in their 30 year history\, when he agreed to launch—and do a three month run of—their newest show Mad Apple\, at the magnificent 1200 seat New York New York Theater in Las Vegas. The show became an immediate smash hit to rave revues\, singling out Williams for his incredible ability to captivate his audiences with his extraordinary performances. \nIn addition to stand-up and acting\, Williams co-created and co-hosted one of the most successful podcasts in the world\, with friend and fellow comic Adam Ray\, entitled About Last Night\, which was always a mainstay on the iTunes charts during their five year run. Additionally\, he is also a regular contributor with a series of incredibly funny appearances on several national radio and podcast platforms\, including KROQ’s Kevin and Bean Show and The Adam Carolla Show.\nWilliams’ humorous and inspiring observations on disability\, relationships\, sex\, and race consistently win over audiences; proving anyone can overcome their shortcomings. His high energy live performances frequently produce standing ovations from audience members; which prompted the late Robin Williams to call him “Prozac with a head.” \nBUY TICKETSRialto

SUMMARY:Tusk:  The World's #1 Tribute to Fleetwood Mac
DESCRIPTION:Tusk:  The World’s #1 Tribute to Fleetwood Mac appears on May 16\, 2025 at 8PM at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL! \nTusk has been criss-crossing the country since 2008 as The Ultimate Fleetwood Mac Tribute. But of all the Fleetwood Mac tributes playing around the United States today\, what exactly sets Tusk apart? \nIs it more than five skilled professionals turned masters of their trade through decades of individual musical study\, live performance\, creative risk\, and devotion to the art? \nIs it more than their affection and respect for the Fleetwood Mac experience\, an entity that continues to endure over 50 years of musical and cultural evolution? \nIs it more than vocal similarities\, common physical traits\, or good costumes? \nTo be sure\, one does not fare well in the tribute scene without displaying some or all of these characteristics. So what qualities does Tusk possess that can’t be learned\, bought\, or created simply from a desire to have them? \nChemistry. Synergy. Intuition. \nThe relationship among the five founding members of Tusk has a rich history that goes back more than four decades. Two met while playing Little League baseball. Two others met in middle school band and marched in lockstep through high school. All five have been playing music with one another over the years in various configurations of original bands\, jam bands\, singer-songwriter circles\, and alternative rock groups. Time\, trust\, and close friendship have cultivated an intimate familiarity with each other’s musical nuances\, shaping each performance with such precision that even the slightest variation\, virtually imperceptible to all but the five musicians sharing the stage\, is met with a wink and a nod\, and usually an inside joke. Tusk is more than a band; they are a family. \nExperience the wonder of a Tusk show for yourself. \nBuy Tickets:  https://www.ticketmaster.com/tusk-the-worlds-1-tribute-to-joliet-illinois-05-16-2025/event/07006149AF482E4D

SUMMARY:Get the Led Out
DESCRIPTION:Get the Led Out appears at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL on February 22\, 2025 at 8PM! \nFrom the bombastic and epic\, to the folky and mystical\, Get The Led Out (GTLO) have captured the essence of the recorded music of Led Zeppelin and brought it to the concert stage. The Philadelphia-based group consists of six veteran musicians intent on delivering Led Zeppelin live\, like you’ve never heard before. Utilizing the multi-instrumentalists at their disposal\, GTLO re-create the songs in all their depth and glory with the studio overdubs that Zeppelin themselves never performed. When you hear three guitars on the album…GTLO delivers three guitarists on stage. No wigs or fake English accents\, GTLO brings what the audience wants…a high energy Zeppelin concert with an honest\, heartthumping intensity. \nDubbed by the media as “The American Led Zeppelin\,” Get The Led Out offers a strong focus on the early years. They also touch on the deeper cuts that were seldom\, if ever heard in concert. GTLO also include a special “acoustic set” with Zep favorites such as “Tangerine” and “Hey Hey What Can I Do.” \nGTLO has amassed a strong national touring history\, having performed at major club and PAC venues across the country. GTLO’s approach to their performance of this hallowed catalog is not unlike a classical performance. “Led Zeppelin are sort of the classical composers of the rock era\,” says lead vocalist Paul Sinclair. “I believe 100 years from now they will be looked at as the Bach or Beethoven of our time. As cliché as it sounds\, their music is timeless.” \nA GTLO concert mimics the “light and shade” that are the embodiment of “The Mighty Zep.” Whether it’s the passion and fury with which they deliver the blues-soaked\, groovedriven rock anthems\, it’s their attention to detail and nuance that makes a Get The Led Out performance a truly awe-inspiring event! \nPaul Sinclair – Lead Vocals\, Harmonica\nPaul Hammond – Electric and Acoustic Guitars\, Mandolin\, Theremin\nTommy Zamp – Electric and Acoustic Guitars\, Vocals\nEddie Kurek – Keyboards\, Guitar\, Vocals\, Percussion\nDerek Smith – Drums\, Percussion\nSeth Chrisman – Bass\, Vocals \nBuy Tickets: https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/07006148BA01265D

SUMMARY:Serial Killers with Dr. Scott Bonn
DESCRIPTION:Serial Killers with Dr. Scott Bonn appears at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL on January 24 at 8PM! \nTHE CURIOUS APPEAL OF THE WORLD’S MOST TERRIFYING MURDERERS\nHear Doc Bonn’s unique\, chilling insights from examining:\n» Dennis Rader (BTK Strangler)\n» David Berkowitz (Son of Sam)\n» Rex Heuermann (Alleged Long Island Serial Killer)\n» Jeffery Dahmer and more…\nSpend a deliciously chilling evening with renowned criminologist and serial killer expert\, Dr. Scott Bonn\, as he takes you inside the minds of the world’s most savage and prolific murderers. \nIn this thrilling 90-minute show\, Dr. Bonn reveals the insatiable\, psychological hunger that drives the likes of Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer to kill repeatedly with impunity and no remorse. He explains why the majority of serial killers are either psychopaths or sociopaths\, and how the two differ\, and he reveals that every serial killer is compelled to murder by a unique fantasy need. He also explains how/why serial killers can successfully avoid apprehension\, blend into a crowd\, and become invisible. \nDr. Bonn is a best-selling author\, professor\, public speaker\, and he has interacted with such notorious serial killers as Dennis Rader (“Bind\, Torture Kill”) and David Berkowitz (“Son of Sam”). He shares shocking tales from his actual experiences with these killers. Dr. Bonn also developed a profile of the unknown “Long Island Serial Killer” in 2011 that matches the alleged perpetrator\, Rex Heuermann\, perfectly. He shares the secrets of how he was able to predict the psychological and behavioral makeup of the Long Island Serial Killer with such incredible precision years before his capture. \nBonn has comprehensively studied\, extensively corresponded with\, personally interviewed\, and accurately profiled some of the world’s most notorious predators.\nRather than employing a pop psychology or checklist approach to describe serial killers\, Dr. Bonn relies on his direct interactions to explain that serial killers are psychologically complex\, and diverse and evolve from forces of both nature (biology) and nurture (environment). Simply put\, Dr. Bonn takes his audience inside the minds of some of the world’s most terrifying killers from his own unique experiences rather than from a textbook.

SUMMARY:1964 The Tribute
DESCRIPTION:1964 The Tribute appears at the Rialto Square Theatre on November 8 at 7:30PM! \nSince the early eighties\, “1964”…The Tribute has been thrilling audiences around the globe by taking them on a journey through a quintessential moment in music history that will live forever. \nOver twenty years of researching and performing have made “1964” masters of their craft. They are hailed by critics and fans alike as THE most authentic and endearing Beatles tribute….which has earned them the distinction from Rolling Stone magazine as the “Best Beatles Tribute on Earth”. \n“1964” recreates an early ‘60s live Beatle concert with period instruments\, clothing\, hairstyles\, and onstage banter with an accuracy that is unmatched. \n“1964” is:\nMark Benson as John Lennon\nMac Ruffing as Paul McCartney\nTom Work as George Harrison\nBobby Potter as Ringo Starr\nTalking Points: \nMark Benson and Gary Grimes (The Original Paul) together with Tom Work and Greg George started “1964”…The Tribute. \nMac Ruffing is actually right handed and learned to play the bass left handed to more accurately portray Paul. \nAs Mark Benson likes to mention on stage\, they thought the Beatles gig would last for only a few lunch time shows\, they never thought it would have lasted 20+ years. \nMark is also a guitar luthier and maintains all of the instruments. His 2 Rickenbacker 325s are custom made by him and contain customizations to more closely resemble and sound like the original Lennon guitars.\nTom Work can both guitar parts of “And Your Bird Can Sing”….at the SAME TIME! 1964 has played to SOLD OUT shows at Carnegie Hall\, and Red Rocks many times. \nMark Benson (John Lennon): \nMark Benson was introduced to music playing drums and piano at age eight. \nAt age 17 he started playing guitar and became fascinated by the different sounds that different guitars made and started servicing\, repairing and building guitars which he learned how to do at Lay’s guitar Repair in Akron\, Ohio. \nHe made guitars for Eddie Van Halen and Jackson Browne and sold vintage guitars to The Rolling Stones\, The Who\, Bad Company\, Hall and Oates\, Ted Nugent\, ZZ Top\, The Eagles\, Alvin Lee\, Joe Walsh\, The Allman Brothers\, The Cars\, David Lindley\, Cheap Trick\, and the Doobie Brothers. \nMark played guitar in the local Ohio bands Ashes\, Raintree\, Coconut\, Mr. French and Bock (with 1964 co-founder\, Gary Grimes). \nIn 1984 Mark and Gary\, started “1964 The Tribute”.\n“We had no idea when we first started this band\, that it would lead to us performing at so many of the venues The Beatles played\, like Carnegie Hall\, Red Rocks Amphitheater\, The Deauville Hotel\, Shea Stadium\, and The Cavern in Liverpool\, England.” \nHe currently produces all aspects of the show and produced the “1964” CDs\, “All You Need Is Live”\,“Nine Hours In November”\, “Bootleg Vol. 1” and “30/50 Celebration”. \nMark says\, “’1964′ shows the audience what it was like to attend a Beatles concert in the early sixties and generates the same feeling of happiness that is still generated by the music of The Beatles. We get so much of this positive energy back from our audiences\, it reassures us that for now\, we are where we are supposed to be”. \nMac Ruffing (Paul McCartney): \nMac Ruffing was born and raised near Cleveland\, Ohio and as a young child started listening to his older sisters’ Beatle records. The first album he ever bought was “The Beatles 1962-66\,” which is exactly what 1964 The Tribute does\, and is still his favorite music. \nMac started playing the drums at 15\, and at 17 he bought a Kingston violin bass (a Hofner knockoff) at a local music store and unknowingly started his roll as “Paul.” \nHe played in several Southern California original\, Top 40 and Beatle cover groups\, including ‘Help!\,’ ‘Imagine\,’ ‘The Yanks’ and ‘ATP’\, all while working full time as a land surveyor. \nMac\, not a natural ‘south paw’\, spent the better part of a year training himself to play the bass guitar left handed\, like Paul McCartney. In 1993 he joined the Beatles tribute \n‘Beatlemania Live!\,’ touring the world which led to his “passing the audition” in 2009 and joining the touring cast of the Beatles show ‘RAIN’ on Broadway and in theaters and Performing Arts centers all over the world. \nIn 1982 he met 1964 The Tribute co-founders\, Mark and Gary\, and over the years subbed on occasion with the band. He joined the band full time in 2013\, and has since been performing some of the world’s best music with the world’s best Beatles tribute band. \nMac is naturally a right-handed player\, but taught himself to play the bass left-handed. He also plays the piano and guitar. Mac has immersed himself in the role of Paul McCartney and looks forward to recreating the magic of the Beatles at every 1964 The Tribute show. \nTom Work (George Harrison): \nTom Work (George) is a co-founder of “1964” The Tribute\, and is the act’s first George. Tom began playing guitar at the age of 7\, and following high school he studied music at the University of Akron. Since the late 1960s Tom has played and sung in a variety of ensembles. During high school and college he played flute\, sousaphone and bassoon in the marching and symphony bands; professionally\, Tom has worked in well over a dozen “cover bands\,” most notably Dogs ‘n Kids\, The Lou Ciriano Combo\, My Old School and The Jerry Bruno Orchestra. Tom even sang Lead for 8 years in a barbershop quartet (believe it or not\, it’s true!). \nTom also worked in over 20 musical theatre productions\, both onstage in leading roles\, and behind the scenes as Producer and Music Director. “Performing onstage in a band is really where I belong\,” Tom says\, “although conducting the pit orchestra\, for me\, is every bit as exciting—and even more challenging! \nIt’s a very rewarding experience to help extract top-notch performances from people\, to guide performers to their pinnacle. There’s nothing quite like sitting in the orchestra pit on opening night and hearing an actor deliver his or her best-ever performance!” \nIn 2006 Tom returned to “1964” The Tribute\, ending a 12-year sabbatical. “During my time away from 1964 I worked with a few of the other Beatles shows\,” he notes. “I learned a great deal and forged close friendships with some great people\, but there’s nowhere I’d rather be\, no group of performers I’d rather work with than “1964”. It’s great to be back!” \nBobby Potter (Ringo Starr): \nBobby was born in Indiana. He started taking snare drum lessons in the 5th grade and got his first set of drums in the 7th. Later\, when The Beatles arrived on the music scene\, he made it a personal goal to be like Ringo. He played in 3 bands through high school – a Tijuana Brass band\, high school pep band and a top 40 band. He helped form a popular local band that performed in his home town and surrounding area teen clubs. He later moved to Champaign\, Illinois and joined a band that performed in and around the tri-state area \nWanting to spread his wings he then set his sights on the west coast and moved to Los Angeles where he helped form The Finders\, then Shake\, Rattle N’ Roll and played the nightclubs there for 10 years. He then moved to Las Vegas and played the Nevada casino circuit. Capitalizing on his experience he backed such greats as Chris Montez\, Billy Swan\, Jewel Akens\, Al Wilson\, J.J. Jackson\, The Coasters\, The Drifters\, The Dell Vikings\, 7 show/lounge acts and too many Elvis impersonators to mention. \nStill wanting to achieve his personal “Ringo” goal he joined two Beatle tributes\, spending 8 years in this endeavor. His personality shines onstage as he authentically reproduces every beat and moves his head to the music portraying Ringo with precision and style. This accomplished artist transports the audience to the carefree magical era with his voice when he performs “Boys” and “Act Naturally”. Bobby is thrilled to be a member of\n“1964”…The Tribute! He states in his own words\, “In the tribute world\, you can’t get any closer or higher up than this for authenticity\, style and sound in the same way The\nBeatles performed live”. \nBuy Tickets:  https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/070060741AC25C1F

SUMMARY:Pat McGann
DESCRIPTION:Pat McGann appears at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL on May 17 at 8PM! \nPat McGann is quickly rising as one of the sharpest stand-ups in the comedy world. A relative latecomer to the scene\, Pat began stand up at the age of 31 after realizing he was not very good at selling packaging. He hustled his way to become the house emcee at Zanies Chicago\, where he distinguished himself as especially adept at working the crowd. \nA father of 3 young children\, Pat’s appeal stems from his quick wit & relatable take on the family. In 2017\, McGann began touring as the opening act for Sebastian Maniscalco\, moving with him from clubs to theaters\, and to arenas\, including 4 sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden. McGann’s relatively short\, but impressive resume\, includes performances on The Late Show with David Letterman\, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert\, Montreal’s famed Just For Laughs Festival\, Gilda’s LaughFest\, The Great American Comedy Festival\, and the Nashville Comedy Fest. McGann still calls Chicago home. \n  \nBuy Tickets:  https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/07005F88FA5E5275
