Lollapalooza?

[joz]

i hit refresh all morning...left aroun 12:30 to grab a quick lunch...and now the GD tickets are gone. bullsh*t! it's probably an omen. i had tix for last year's doomed lolla tour and maybe i should just forget about this one altogether. what an unorganized mess anyway...tickets will go onsale "sometime" on the 7th?? nice for all of us 9 to 5ers that don't have time to sit around and watch the f*cking site all day long.

I couldn't be happier right now about getting a $35 ticket and a hotel within a block of the park for less than $100!!!

I was till I found this:
 http://www.congresshotelstrike.info/index.asp
 
 Changed my mind real quick. Found a "private" hotel just a block up from there.

I booked a room at the Cass Hotel just in case I decide to go. I can always cancel it. What hotel did you find LRHippo? It's sounds closer than the Cass.

i have reservations at three hotels right now...the congress, the allegro and the hotel 71.  congress is closest but i stayed there back in '97 and thought it was a bit of a shithole. problem is, the people i'm traveling with are on a shoestring budget. with this strike business, i think i may just spring for the extra $20/night and stay somewhere else. it's farther from grant park but...

[joz]

ok. i'm absolutely disgusted after looking at that website. glad i didn't cancel my reservations at the other places. i will definitely NOT be staying at the congress. thanks for posting hippo.

The allegro is an awesome hotel, i stay there everytime i go to Chicago.
 
   hey, once they announce line-ups....and you decide which room to get...I may take one of those reservations of your hands.... keep me in mind (if they're all booked)
