Lollapalooza roll call?
« on: June 06, 2006, 12:11:00 pm »
Anyone else going besides Amnesiac? I had to decide whether to go to Pitchfork festival or Lollapalooza, but Lolla's lineup is far superior though the Pitchfork festival is hella cheap.

i am going to Lollapalooza
 
   the lineup messes with me, because although there are a lot of great  bands, there are a lot of crappy ones too.  so sometimes it looks like the lineup stinks (disco biscuits, rhcp, matisyahu, mates of state, coheed and cambria) other times it looks kick ass (eels, ryan adams, Sonic youth, secret machines, lyrics born, death cab)
 
   i also got the presale $45 tickets, so it made my decision easier.

yeah, they had some presale a couple months ago.  $45 a ticket.  with service charges it was like $108 total for 2 3-day passes.  (the same price for ONE hfstival pit ticket for ONE day, WITHOUT service charges!!)
 
 yeah, cant beat it, so no complaining from me about getting ripped off, lol.

I wish I had done that. They're about to go up to $150 now.
 
 With a lineup this huge there's bound to be a band on somewhere that you want to see, so you'll be able to avoid all the shitty bands. I'm just worried that there are too many stages and that too many good bands' sets will overlap.

I think the earliest presale was $30 per ticket, with a max of two - I got those.
 
 I will be there as well.  Excited, as it will be my first time back to Chicago (hometown) since New Years.
