For the fifth, and possibly final, time, the Skyline Stage was the setting for Umphrey's McGee in Chicago during the summertime. To start off is the brand new tune, Higgins. Debuted a week before, the song is a continuation of the songwriting direction the band has taken with songs like The Bottom Half and Believe the Lie. The eccentric Frank Zappa bandmate Ray White and local bass legend Greg Rzab hopped on-stage to join the band for a rousing rendition of Zappa's City of Tiny Lites, complete with White "taking a phone call" mid-song.
