You never know what you're gonna get
Posted by Stacy Chandler at March 16, 2006 7:27 PMMan, back in high school, I'd swear the only people interested in Lollapalooza were stoner dudes, right? Maybe I was mistaken, or maybe things of have changed. Or maybe I've turned into a stoner dude and just don't know it. All I know is the lineup for this year's Lollapalooza has been announced, and I see a lot to pique my interest.
Wilco, for example, is one of the headliners. Also signed up are Death Cab for Cutie, The Raconteurs (apparently Jack White's new band, which by itself is interesting because this is the first I'm hearing of this), Ryan Adams, Nickel Creek (!) and Calexico.
I won't be able to make it to Chicago this August for the fest, so my interest is kind of a moot point. But maybe I'll start now growing my hair into white-girl dreds just for solidarity.
Wow.
And I remember when Lollapalooza featured new and unknown artists such as Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, and Mother Love Bone.
Things have changed in my days. Suddenly I feel like I need a hearing aid. (Probably because I've got Cold Roses cranked too damn loud!)
