The first show at Wrigley was by Jimmy Buffett in 2005. With a capacity of nearly 40,000 the acts are big attractions that have tended to lean toward classic rock and country. Neither the Cubs nor LiveNation will say how many shows will be added this summer, but performers already include Foo Fighters, Billy Joel, Pearl Jam, Luke Bryan, Fall Out Boy and Def Leppard and Journey.
