Lollapalooza 2006

Shane and Kathy at Lollapalooza 2006
No wedding planning this weekend... we went to Lollapalooza in Grant Park. This year it was three days long, twice as big and thankfully, not 105 degrees like last year. Unfortunately, Krista and I didn't win backstage passes this year but we did slum it at the front of She Wants Revenge. Yes, a bit cheesy but that type of music is like comfort food.

My other favorite performances were The Editors, The Raconteurs, Dresden Dolls, Thievery Corporation and Living Things. Shane's favorite was Wolfmother (Jeff's too). Eric liked The Hold Steady. Some good bands that I missed that I'm listening at home now were Andrew Bird (Heather was right), Lyrics Born (Callin' Out... Hoopafreaks!) and Husky Rescue. I got lazy a couple of times and didn't make the hike to the other side of the park. Check out band soundclips and find your favorites!
