Gagapalooza, August 6-8, Chicago

A few years ago (2007) Lady Gaga was a side-stage act at Lollapalooza. Today she joins the other top billings - Soundgarden, Green Day, Arcade Fire, The Strokes, and Phoenix - headlining 100+ other groups and artists including Devo, Spoon, MGMT, The Black keys, Neon Trees, Empire of the Sun, et al.


Lollapalooza fans attending the festival will find it larger this year. Thirty five more acres of Grant Park will provide breathing space and boost attendance. (For the last two years attendance has been about 75,000 per day, pretty much what the existing space could handle.)


I'm pretty sure those of you that planned to go have already bought your discounted passes and made up your custom line-ups, LOL. Nevertheless, the tickets still available are $90 per day or $215 for a 3-day pass.
