 Ottobar has Devlin and Darko
 Sonar has DJ Z Trip and Uberzone
 
 What's the deal with the Home Turn After Party?  Is it in the grandstand?

[miss pretentious]

I think the Home Turn After Party is reserved for VIPs... I think. I could be wrong.
 
 But if I head to an after party it's going to be the one at Sonar, although at $20 it is going to heavily heavily depend on my level of exhaustion/amount of money I spent that day. I'm totally playing it by ear though.
 
 We might as well turn this into the Virgin roll call thread too...
 
 Obviously, I'll be there and my plans for Saturday are basically camping out at South State nearly the entire time: Fratellis, Paolo, Peter Bjorn & John, LCD Soundsystem, TV on the Radio and Modest Mouse. I may check out some Beasties and Police, but thats very tentative.
 
 Sunday: Dan Deacon, Regina Spektor, Spoon, the end of the EITS set, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, end of the Wu-Tang set, Interpol and M.I.A.

You're welcome to check out The Police with me if you like.  This your mission, should you choose to accept it, Miss P.  This post will self-destruct in 10 seconds . . .

I'd be afraid of getting peed on. Although, I might make like a tree and leave.
 
 Something tells me there is a good story to go along with this.

The sonar afterparty looks fun.
 
 
 Wham city are hosting negativland in baltimore that night too but I'm not sure as to what time that starts. May be before v-fest is done.

[miss pretentious]

suggestion: skip MIA, definitely catch regina and deacon.  interpol - meh, apparently their live show is an acquired taste that i've yet to appreciate.

today's best stage banter award from lolla goes to gary from snow patrol:
 
 "so, this is our first time playing lollapalooza" <crowd cheers> "are there any other lollapalooza virgins out there?" <big crowd cheer> "wow, ok, and how many people have never been to lolla before?"
 
 (yes, luckily we're here for the music)

My friend who works for Virgin was able to get me a ticket to the after party on the second floor of the grandstand.  Free booze and James Murphy spinning recordsâ?¦.not too shabby.   Richard Branson was sitting in the roped off VIP section.
