Lollapalooza 2010

[C DUB YA]

anyone else pissed beyond belief that rothbury is cancalled?
or is it just me

Rothbury was hippie crap, glad it s gone.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

ugh. J$$$$ just pointed out DMB is open during the Lolla dates. Hopefully Alpine will count as his "Chicago" dates.

[heart cooks brain]

There is also talk of DMB playing wrigley, so hopefully that means he won't show up in Grant Park

Hate to be a downer, but the same company that does Austin City Limits does Lolla. And they booked DMB in the fall...

[heart cooks brain]

Yes but they are well aware that Lolla and ACL are two different entities. Also, a DMB summer gig at Wrigley would definitely fall under the radius clause 60 days before and 30 after

[heart cooks brain]

I'm guessing that's what he was talking about. they wouldn't book the same headliner two years in a row

[ZackQ]

I was just noting that C3 or whatever the company is called is not oppossed to DMB.

[heart cooks brain]

they also booked Dylan as a headliner at ACL, and there is no way they would book him to headline Lolla. DMB at Lolla is very unlikely open dates or not

DIDN'T DMB JUST HEADLINE LAST YEAR???? Jesus christ, if ACL books them again then I don't know what to say.

god you guys are fucking morons...

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

Yeah sorry, didn't read things right.

I went to Lolla' in 2008, and had fun... not as much fun as my 2 Coachella experiences (2006&2008), but I had fun. I plan on going back to Lolla' this year.

It seems like Coachella will tip you off on who will be hitting most of the major summer fests in the U.S... But I give credit to Lolla for usually having their own unique headliners at the top. I only went in '08, but they had 3 separate different headliners from Coachella (granted these headliners did headline a few other fests). Last year the only crossover headliner was the Killers right? I guess what I'm getting at is eventhough a lot of the same groups/artists we see on the Coachella bill (and the 'Roo wand whatever other fest that happens before Lolla') will be at Lolla, I hope Lolla finds some uniqueness with their headliners... but not "Gaga" uniqueness lol.

For me (like Stinkbutt, Stickjohn, etc) being from the Twin Cities area, it's a 6 hour road trip for us in the summer. It's a natural weekend road trip for a lot of people in Minnesota. So the 'fest, regardless of the annoying attendees, is a good destination for us.

It sucks that we can't camp, because the hotels are expensive as hell if you don't have any friends/family living in the area. That and I found "cheap" downtown parking at $30/day lol (will fly and take public transportation this year).

As far as all the corporate sponsorship and such, there is quite a bit, but it's not like a band will say "we now interrupt this performance for a word from our sponsor- is the 90 degree sun beating you down? Head over to the Sweet Leaf Ice Tea stand after this performance and choose from one of their 20 different flavors... want something harder, try a Mike's hard lemonade"... I mean it's around, but I don't think it gets in the way of the performance.

[suprefan]

wow....if GaGa plays....omg....

They hinted at it. but then again, it could end up being Ke$ha

[SoulDischarge]

I need to start practicing fence hopping now.

[ShyGuy75]

roof top party 2010 ?

were you at our roof top party after rad head in 08?

[slurpee]

were you at our roof top party after rad head in 08?

I don't think so....




I throw a party at my roof top on LSD at Addison every year except 2009. I was in Australia this past Lolla and missed it

Party is usually the Thursday night before the festival. However it depends on weather. It can become unbearably windy 30 floors up on the lake in the windy city. I am sure we can plan something out a few days before....

All Coachella board members are more than welcome. Send me a private message for more info in August. Or try and find me at Coachella, I will be the guy with the long hair.

I need to start practicing fence hopping now.

There are actually plenty of places to get through that don't have fence. Some of the places you can sneak in are through bushes and shrubbery or other landscaping around the park. I know someone who did it the year Rage played. I usually buy my ticket the week of Lolla for about $200. I don't like paying more because I only plan on seeing sets in the evenings a couple of the days and maybe one full day depending on how things are scheduled.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Who hinted at what?

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

some guy on the CoS is claiming these are the headliners but is unsure about the 6th:

Mark on Feb 9th, 2010 at 11:41 pm
HEADLINERS:
Green Day
Lady Gaga
Soundgarden
Beastie Boys
Flaming Lips

Other bands:
MGMT
Phoenix

Just wait

yes anyone can post on the CoS board but if you remember last year someone on there also had the 6 headliners in advanced. Which I believe they already do, if Perry Farrell last comments were to be believed.

[paulb]

Lady Gaga played Lolla in 07....no need to bring her back.
