Lollapalooza 2009 Rundown and Videos


Here's a video of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" from last Friday headlining the Chicago 2016 Stage at Lollapalooza in Grant Park Chicago:

Fleet Foxes doing "Mykonos" on Friday afternoon on the Playstation Stage.
^Like this one so much I posted it twice.

Tool doing "Forty-Six & 2" on Saturday night headlining the Chicago 2016 Stage

And about 20 more can be found on my YouTube channel

Lollapalooza Best of:

10. Seeing a DJ instruct a young MC (about 8 years old) at the "Hip Hop Academy" in Kidzapalooza. DJ was telling Young Schwilly to say "I'm getting crazy/don't know where my parents are at/this is how I rhyme yadda yadda yadda. You had to be there, wish I had video

9. Snoop Dogg doing his thing in front at least 50-60,000 people. Barely rapped at all, people just liked being in his presence.

8. Arctic Monkeys Saturday main stage performance.

7. Santigold- Unstoppable

6. Chairlift and Passion Pit at the Michigan Avenue Apple Store. High School Musical 14 was being filmed there I think.

5. Alberta Cross for Sunday Brunch. 11:45 Sunday set, made it there just in time. Got to interview the band following the set, cool guys, great musicians. Debut album out September 22nd. Gonna be a big one.

4. Fleet Foxes playing "He Doesn't Know Why", "Mykonos" and "Blue Ridge Mountains" to close a stunning set of music...and the rain finally stopped.

3. Delta Spirit from the side stage. This band just keeps getting better and better.

2. Depeche Mode/tool: Too different to rank one or the other. Both put on amazing shows musically and theatrically. Equally powerful in their own very different way.

1. Kaiser Chiefs rock-and-roll show. Wowie Zowie Batman.
