They're coming to Chicago. And, they're also my kids' favorite band. I would love to take them to see the show. Has anybody been to see them?
What kind of crowd is it?
Relatively (all thing considered) kid-safe; or at least neutral?

I can make assumptions (and already have), but I would rather hear from folks.

I saw them at the Aragon during the tour for the first album. It was an interesting but yet a little boring. They played behind a screen, so you could see their silhouettes and then they projected random cartoon images on the screen. It would have been cooler if the projected images were their cartoon persona playing the songs.

the only thing i'd point out to potential showgoers basing their opinion to see gorillaz on this is that the star power on a normal tour isn't going to be near as jaw-dropping as it was at coachella.

New album is by far their best, I think.

Well, OK, I really only listened to the first one before this and ignored the rest, but I never liked the first one very much. "Electric Ants" and "Melancholy Hill" are probably my favorites from this one.
