PHOTOS / SETLISTS / VIDEO | Umphrey's McGee Milwaukee Run

Milwaukee's Riverside Theater is a FOR REAL destination venue for live music.

Widespread Panic's now legendary fall runs are getting a challenge from a genuine Midwestern act.  Umphrey's McGee touched down for three shows to close out March and welcome April.  It's becoming just as much a right of passage

The theater, and Jefferson Waful's lights, proved to be as photogenic as ever.  TV's Kevin Hiller delivered over 90 photos that captured the three nights.
