Lollapalooza 2012

I could sit through the first 30 seconds of "Take Me Out", that's pretty perfect imo

Seems like a pretty lame line-up to me. I'd much rather to to the Pitchfork Music Fest.

If all of the Pitchfork acts played in one day I'd agree, but it's too spread out. Pitchfork lacks the depth or punch to the top of their bill--it's a bunch of bands I'd love to go see for $10...

Jack White, At The Drive-in, Sigur Ros, Tune-Yards, Band of Skulls, Bear in Heaven, First Aid Kit, Thenewno2, and maybe Bloc Party and Twin Shadow are all that stand out to me. As awesome as it would be to see all those bands I'm not sure its really worth it since more than half the list would grate on my nerves, but me and some friends are still talking about going since we're so close(I live like a 3 hour drive from there).

Lollapalooza

I'll stick with the 6 low quality mp3s I scored years ago from the Chili Peppers playing Lollapaloza '92. Back when both were actually relevant.

With Erik Marshall on guitar?

I do believe, his playing is very subtle as compared to Frusciante if older bootlegs I've got are any indication. It's not their best but I'd rather hear old school Peppers with warts and all than the shiny modern version.

Either way the set was (not in order)

Blood Sugar Sex Magik
If You Have to Ask
Magic Johnson
Mommy, Where's Daddy
My Lovely Man

Stone Cold Bush

New Jersey doesn't get festivals like this unless you like mallcore bands and attend Bamboozle. I wish I was in Chicago because the line up is pretty interesting.

You'd have to hold a gun to their heads to get them to play those songs live again!

That intro into 'Stone Cold Bush'...
