Lollapalooza is a major festival that most people look forward to every year. I wish I were one of the ones going this year because it seems like it is going to be awesome. I have looked through the line up and it seems like it is going to rock. Too bad I do not have the money to get to Chicago.

They did not release the whole line up, but the ones that I have found sound pretty cool. They are as follows: Radiohead, Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Kanye West, Wilco, The Raconteurs, Love and Rockets, Gnarls Barkley , Bloc Party, The Black Keys, Broken Social Scene, Flogging Molly, Mark Ronson, Cat Power, Lupe Fiasco, The National, G. Love & Special Sauce, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, Explosions in the sky, Brand New, Gogol Bordello, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, Dierks Bentley, Okkervil River, Amadou & Mariam, Blues Traveler, John Butler Trio, Girl Talk, CSS, Battles, Jamie Lidell, Butch Walker, Mates of State, Spank Rock, Brazilian Girls, Chromeo, Duffy, The Kills, Rogue Wave, The Go! Team, Mason Jennings, The Gutter Twins, Yeasayer, Grizzly Bear, MGMT, The Weakerthans, Booka Shade, Santogold, Black Kids, Black Lips, Louis XIV, Dr. Dog, Nicole Atkins & The Sea, The Ting Tings, Kid Sitter, Office, The Cool Kids, What Made Milwaukee Famous, Does it Offend You, Yeah, The Wings, Manchester Orchestra, Foals, Uffie, The Octopus Project, Cadence Weapon, Ferras, De Novo Dahl, Noah and The Whale, Margot & and the Nuclear So and So's, K'NAAN, Serena Ryder, Newton Faulkner, Your Vegas, Eli "Paperboy" Reed & The True Lovers, Steel Train, Bang Camaro, The Blakes, Tally Hall, White Lies, Magic Wands, Electric Touch, Innerpartysystem, The Postelles, The Parlor Mob, DJ Bald Eagle, Krista, Ha Ha Tonka, Witchcraft, We Go To 11, and Sofia Talvik.

The opening times for this year's Lollapalooza are in August. Lollapalooza starts August 1st and lasts through August 3rd. I do not know the times of it because I can not fins it anywhere so if there is anyone that knows then please let me know. This year's Lollapalooza is located at Grant Park, Chicago. So if any of you are planning on attending then you will be able to go to the windy city.

Admissions prices range from $175-$205. The price you will pay for your tickets all depends on when you buy them. The $175 tickets are the early bird special price, but the only bad thing about it that the early bird specials are sold out. The advanced tickets are now on sale. The price for these tickets is $190. The price for regular tickets is $205. The regular tickets are not on sale right now. You have to wait until the advanced tickets are all sold out. You can buy tickets online at http://www.lollapalooza.com. You can probably call the box office or something like that to buy tickets as well, but all I found was this website. I am sure there are more, but I do not know about them. If someone finds one then feel free to add to this.

There will be many different venders there, but when I look them up they will not let me know which ones will be. If there is anyone else that knows any information about this then please feel free to add to this. They also have many different activities that the whole family can enjoy. They offer kid friendly activities. I will now list a few of them.

They offer a kidzapalooza there. Children 10 and under get in free if they have a ticket holding adult with them. There is no limit on how many kids each adult can bring. The reason they have this is because some people want to bring their children with them when they go to Lollapalooza. They will let their kids go, with another adult or older child and then they will go to the Lollapalooza. The reason why is because a lot of parents do not want their children to hear this type of music or be around a crowd like that because they will get wild sometimes. All in all this is what I found out about this year's Lollapalooza. Anything else that needs to be added then just feel free to let me know.
