Providing a prime example of the sort of exciting event that could be curtailed by the city’s ill-considered promoters’ ordinance, the local punk-rock record label Criminal IQ’s Totally Wired Fest moves into the Abbey Pub, 3420 W. Grace, at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Friday’s lineup includes Mentally Ill, Human Eye, AluminumKnotEye, the Teeners, TV Ghost and Daily Void, while Saturday’s performers are Zero Boys, Holy S---!, Clockcleaner, Canadian Rifle, Vapid, FNU Ronnies and the Catburglars. Tickets for the 18-and-over fest are $10 Friday, $15 Saturday at the door. For more information, visit www.criminaliq.com or call (773) 478-4408.
