Lollapalooza 2008

Best festival lineup so far this year. I don't know why, but I always thought this festival was kind of dead in recent years

Lollapalooza 2008 : August 1-3, 2008 : Chicago : Grant Park

Occido · 04-07-2008, 11:31 AM

Yep me too... thought this event died long ago. Guess not.

Cuppycake · 04-07-2008, 12:22 PM

Damn....

I move away from the midwest and then this hits. What a lineup.

Bralkan · 04-07-2008, 12:55 PM

wow, this is nice.

tikkus · 04-07-2008, 02:17 PM

How strict are they about substances? I may skip Bonnaroo and his this up this year.

kegkilla · 04-07-2008, 03:14 PM

radiohead rules

Thunderbane · 04-07-2008, 03:47 PM

Yeah this line-up beats Bonnaroo upside the head, depending on your band preference.

But I don't think anybody can argue that, as far as seeing bands live in 2008 goes -- Rage & NIN > Pearl Jam & Metallica

And I mean throw Radiohead on top of all that. *swoosh*

Regime · 04-07-2008, 04:10 PM

RATM and NIN
Man this is tempting.

p.s.

Fuck Bonnaroo, Metallica? lol

Tool was cool but never again to Manchester shall i go.

Fammaden · 04-07-2008, 05:19 PM

I don't think it ever totally died, just moved from being a traveling fest to only being in Chicago like that right?

I attended the first two years in the early 90's. Seeing Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Rage against the Machine, Porno for Pyros, Stone Temple Pilots, and Ministry within a 3 day span was phenomenal.

This years lineup looks miles better than the past few.

Candiarie · 04-09-2008, 08:33 PM

Well, I'd agree except last year having Daft Punk. I already bought tickets to this and Bonnaroo. From what I understand last year they were completely lenient about substances but it was hard as hell to find any to buy there, so bring your own drugs.

Ronne · 04-10-2008, 07:32 AM

Bloc Party? Girl Talk? Flogging Molly? I'm sold.

Eomer · 04-10-2008, 02:07 PM

Motherfucker, if it wasn't right after Pemberton I'd be tempted to. That's a hell of a lineup.

Jimmy Carter wuwu · 04-16-2008, 02:31 PM

Someone buy my plane ticket from Idaho, and ill come attend it with some fellow FOH members. RATM alone is worth the trip, plus NIN, Radio head, Flogging molly....

Thunderbane · 04-17-2008, 01:19 PM

Yeah this line-up is shoop-da-woop.

It's kind of like they're returning to the Lolla roots. Having Rage & NIN headlining. I like that.

I also like Broken Social Scene on that list, been wanting to see them for a loooooooong time.
