NEW LENOX, IL — New Lenox's Summer Concert Series kept rolling last weekend, with performances by Toad the Wet Sprocket and Men at Work on Friday, followed up by Big & Rich on Saturday.

The bands delivered their hits both nights, with fans taking it all in despite an unexpected rainstorm late during Friday's shows.

Saturday's show was interactive and included a tribute to veterans, with Big & Rich featuring several veterans on stage, audience members said.

Check out Friday's setlists below, and some photos from Friday's show. A setlist from Big & Rich's show wasn't available.

The series continues Saturday, Aug. 15, with Andy Grammer taking the stage in his show rescheduled from a rainout last year. Tickets are still available and can be purchased online.
