Lollapalooza gets into Beastie-Mode


Jane's Addiction, Beastie Boys and Depeche Mode have been confirmed as headliners for this year's Lollapalooza festival in Chicago's Grant Park. It's a promising start for sure, but I'm still holding my breath until the full lineup is unveiled in April. Lolla lineups have a reputation for being top heavy, but I'd like to see organizers do a better job of filling out the middle of the festival rather than putting all their muscle behind the headliners. I came out to last summer's festival only wanting to see maybe four bands, one of which canceled. Perry Farrell needs to saddle up and ride this year.
