Illinois is suing the socially conscious jam band and one of its drivers for allegedly discharging "80 to 100 gallons of liquid human waste" from its tour bus onto a boat full of sightseers on the Chicago River. According to the $70,000 suit, the driver violated state environmental laws and doused dozens of tourists, causing some to be hospitalized.
