If you’ve ever heard “25 or 6 to 4” and immediately needed to crank the volume, Leonid & Friends is your Friday night. The 11-piece Russian band has earned praise from actual members of Chicago for recreating the group’s catalog with a faithfulness that makes you wonder if they’ve been rehearsing since 1974. Expect soaring vocals, a horn section that could rattle the South Street parking garage, and a setlist that hits “Make Me Smile,” “Beginnings,” and “Hard to Say I’m Sorry” alongside other ’70s classics. Tickets run $57 to $144, with a $50 VIP meet-and-greet add-on if you want to shake hands with the band. Showtime is 8 p.m. at Mayo PAC.
