The Friedberger family brought it home to Chicago's Empty Bottle this weekend, for the second date of their little summer jaunt around North America. This was the first hometown show for the Fiery Furnaces under their new hometown label, Thrill Jockey.

The Furnaces continue around the country-- with a brief stop in Canada-- for the next few weeks, pushing their upcoming Thrill Jockey debut, Widow City, which drops on October 23. Tonight they're in Toronto.

All remaining dates and a few more shots after the jump.
