'''''Live in Chicago''''' is a 2001 live album by indie band The Apples in Stereo, released exclusively through the eMusic web platform as an MP3 album on 20 February 2001.  Recorded and performed on 28 March 2000 at Schuba's Tavern, it features the band performing eight of their original songs as well as a cover of the Beach Boys song "Heroes and Villains". The album appeared to have the sound quality of a fan-recorded live bootleg, with main singer and songwriter Robert Schneider having boasted, ''"You can actually hear the vocals very well over the noise. This is the first time one of our live recordings accomplished this."''

Recorded and performed on March 28th, 2000, at Schuba's Tavern, it features the band performing eight of their original songs as well as a cover of the Beach Boys song "Heroes and Villains."
