so exciting!! can’t wait for the official!!!
I really hope Justice gets added to the lineup. I’ve yet to see them.
on pitchfork, the lead singer of the black lips confirmed they’re playing lolla.
Alex and everyone,
Yesterday what made Milwaukee famous played a Internet shoe on deeprockdrive.com. The studio they played at was in las vegas and I went to the show. It was pretty incredible, this band is really one to look out for… As I predict big things from these guys. There was about 7 total people there and we got to chat with the band afterwards for about 15min. It was at this moment they confirmed a lollapalooza set, so feel free to add it on the confirmed list.
Truly some of the most down to earth rock stars I’ve ever met (and I’ve met quite a lot)
Hey Lupe Faisco is added on the website. Just letting you know.
any possibility any of these guys could get added:
the roots
eisley
N.E.R.D.
or
tegan and sara
?
Just curious, where is the Underworld rumor coming from? Just speculation?
James they were thought to be touring with Radiohead at the time he put them up. I guess thats kinda ruled out now.
Just made all my bookings to come out from Baltimore…screw V-fest…
Suzy Brack & The New Jack Lords
sweet adding the aftershows and other shows in the area…i was wondering about them…
Hey guys, Lolla added a DJ stage with quite a few DJ’s and DJ set by other artists, they are listed at the bottom of the lineup and on the schedule.
Noah and the Whale have dropped out of the fest, and they have been replaced with Holy Fuck!
The Ting Ting’s have also dropped out of their aftershow appearance with Gogol Bordello, although they still seem to be playing the regular festival set. They have been replaced by a VHS or Beta DJ Set.
Another aftershow…8/2 Innerpartysystem, Electric Touch, The Heaven Seventies at Reggie’s. I don’t believe it’s an official Lolla aftershow though it includes two Lolla artists…
