Chicago-based prog-rock virtuosos Umphrey's McGee dazzle aural cortices with ever-changing set lists and a heaping platter of new songs as they kick off "Groupon Presents," a new monthly showcase for local artists. Blending rock styles from across the decades, the band fuses inimitable technical prowess with chemistry developed over the course of a friendship that dates back to their days at Notre Dame, ensuring no two concerts are alike. The band's beloved live performances mesmerize fans with radiant light shows and at times encourages them to text suggestions for songs or hairstyles. Lincoln Hall's advanced acoustic engineering ensures every riff and surprise alpenhorn solo soars clearly through the air. A copy of Umphrey's latest album, Death By Stereo, gives attendees a danceable introduction to the group's more compact, hook-centric studio sound.

The Umphrey's McGee Live Recording Archives overflow with MP3s and videos of more than 739 live performances captured at venues ranging from the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in the Colorado mountains to the Brooklyn Bowl. In addition to scores of unique takes on the band's massive catalog ($0.99/track, $9.99/show for most recordings), the archive also unveils treats such as demos for Death By Stereo and takes from a scrapped novelty album of President's Day songs.

The Groupon Guide to: Going Unnoticed Through Life

Though some people seek fame, notoriety, and eye contact, there are many more who would just prefer to remain in the background. If you're a Background Boris, here are some tips to staying out of the eyes and hearts of others:

Childhood: At this time in life it's almost impossible to go unnoticed by your parents unless you've arranged for dozens of children who look exactly like you to live in your home. Find out where siblings come from and get some of those.

Teenage Years: Most of your time will be spent going to class, where teachers will inevitably call on you to share what your ideal version of puberty would be like. Don't worry—as long as you're always standing perfectly still in the corner of your classroom dressed like the president your school was named after, the teacher might mistake you for a statue.

Adulthood: Secure a job at a giant company and come to work every day. Sit in your cubicle quietly and make sure you're never gone for 6 straight months or your coworkers will assume you're a professional baseball player and, upon your return, will challenge you to hit thrown staples with your computer keyboard.
