Taking place August 4-6 in Chicago, Lollapalooza is returning in it's new stand alone form. More acts will be announced in the coming weeks bringing the total up to 130 spread across 8 stages. This thing is gonna be massive. I'm not sure how I feel it compares to the other big fests taking place throughout the summer. All the groups I have listed I am interested in seeing. I hope as more groups come on board that the strokes, tv on the radio, or yeah yeah yeahs will be joining the fray. Tickets are $130USD with service charges. More to come...
