Damn I knew I should have got tix. to this!  Where did this come from.  Seems like late news for this festival. ???
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

This makes me so much more excited for Lollapalooza!  Eels followed by Ryan Adams followed by MMJ. It's gonna be a great.
Hold my life until I'm ready to use it

Lollapalooza used to be a touring festival, right?
When did that stop?
God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into Heaven.....I can't live with that.

when they tried to have audioslave headline and nobody bought tickets...

Really? Cheers Tom, I had no idea.
I remember when it first started (the story goes that Perry Farrel was inspired by the Reading festival) & it was a cool crossover of rock & rap artists like Living Colour, Ice-T, Ice Cube, NIN, RATM etc.
So it's just a regular festival that takes place at one location only now? Strong/diverse line-up...

yeah, they kinda need to get jane's addiction back for it. because that would simplu kick ass.

but yeah, like three or four years ago they tried to bring it back as a touring thing with audioslave leading it up, and i think tickets didn't sell too well because they didn't really publicize it well enough so they had to cancel some states. and then they just decided to have a centralized location. nowhere near as cool as bonnaroo, but it still sounds frickin sweet.

OH MY GOD, this will be my third time to see MMJ this year.  First time, it cost me $10.  Second time, it was free.  This time, I wasn't even planning on seeing them since they weren't on the bill when I got my tix, so it's a nice bonus!

dragonboy

How cool is that, buying a ticket then having one of your fav bands added?!!
Nice one!  :)

What's even better is ever since the bill was announced - and especially after I bought my tickets - I had been thinking, "Goddamnit, why can't My Morning Jacket be on the bill?"

And now they are.   ;D

the_other_woman

Ryan adams is on the 4th and I think I am going to miss that.

actually tom, that last tour with audioslave had Jane's Addiction headlining.  It was their big return and I was so excited because I never got a chance to see them before they broke up.  But nobody came.  It was weird.  And actually Audioslave blew them out of the water because Perry was in a foul mood and they were having sound problems.

Man!  I'm so excited that the Jacket are playing now, but they put them in a time slot up against the Raconteurs!  F!  I might have to see the Raconteurs since I've seen the Jacket twice this week and three times this year.  Oh, what a terrible decision to have to make.  On a lighter note, Andrew Bird and Wilco were absolutely marvelous last night at Summerfest.  Tweedy's banter was top notch!  And the Jacket show on Monday was amazing!  the show on Tues was average but they still rocked pretty hard and I got the Steam Engine with the Birdman.  See y'all at Lolla!

I just remembered that this was going to be on blue room.  We wouldn't be lucky enough to get 3 blue room sets in a row would we?
