They sent it yesterday with the show announcements. BLOLLA23

I still have no idea why you maintain so many Chicago connections but in this case I am glad it worked out so thank you!

I have family that lives there? And like half of my Radiohead crew live there too. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Dived into Sueco since I'm always looking for an excuse to go to Thalia Hall. He's pretty decent actually should be a really fun show. Might hit that one up. Garden still my #1 must have after show tix for the weekend

[blurfan]

I struck out for CRJ but one of my friends was able to get us tickets!

[scorch848]

snagged two ekkstacy tix! $27 with fees is awesome. S/o schubas

[blurfan]

Got a ticket for Mag Bay at the Vic Box office. Only $26 bucks which was nice and dropping so much on Janelle.

Haha nice. I bought Chris tix in the presale because I was afraid it would be a Jessie Ware situation where it was an instant sellout.

Doing Chicago for my bachelor party! We all got 1 day Lolla tickets for Friday and snagged aftershow tickets for Diplo and then Mag Bay on Saturday.

[pmo]

Struck out on CRJ, but I might pay an inflated price for that one. Going to be so fun.

[headoverfeet2021]

I know.

[shuck]

[shuck]

And it’s officially sold out. Festivals are back!

[scorch848]

Welp, I feel a bit more nervous now having not bought my ticket yet. Lolla pockets can run deep so I could absolutely see resale having a fluke year and staying above retail.

Might waitlist this one.

Lmao Tamale Guy is at Lollapalooza now

[stinky]

Anyone have any recommendations for acts from the start of this day up until Fred Again..? I don't really know any of the acts in that time frame, going to check out Tems and Sudan Archives to start and go from there

Edit: not foals or shaq, I'm gonna be lame and try to post up for Fred > Kendrick around 6ish

Sincere Engineer. also as a heads up Tems live is extraordinarily chill; definitely a "sit way back with a drink" type set.

[blurfan]

I've also been liking Loviet, Hemlocke Springs and Beabadooobe. Band- Maid are a female Japanese hard rock group so that could be a vibe as well.

[shuck]

Metro just announced a Wednesday aftershow…and it’s Wallows. 😴

[Deleted]

Been getting into NewJeans and honestly kinda surprised Lolla is their us debut. Its like Kpop for people who like UK Bass. Too late now for them to announce other US shows around it though

[kingvamp999wrld]

Anyone selling either a two 4 days or Sundays? Looking to buy, located in Chicago

[rocketracoon]

Would maybe look into buying Sunday only. Will decide closer to the date. My last Lolla was 2012 I think.

[glistergold]

I had been wanting to go Sunday. But haven’t heard of any festival selling out in so long. What?

Is there a way to go?

Sharing is caring between Lolla and P4k. Stinks Gabriels cant make it

Every lolla lineup ranked, can't say I agree with everything but it's a cool look at the history

[piggy pablo]

The Bad: Because it was only intended as a one-off sort of deal, the selection of bands was pretty limited at the time, with most of the biggest cultural movers like Nirvana and Sonic Youth staying away. In an age where “curated festivals” have become the hot new trend, Lollapalooza in 1991 was the ultimate example, and while many enjoyed the music of Farrell’s Jane’s Addiction, others may have been less enthralled by the likes of Siouxsie and the Banshees, Fishbone, EBN, or Violent Femmes.

First US Siouxsie shows in three years I think that was probably a draw.
