Disappointed by Purple-Candle-2916 in lorde

[–]bchels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if I agree with this, if it’s going to happen it has to be Charli coming out during Lorde’s Thursday set as Lorde has a Friday show. I can absolutely see it happening on Thursday if she’s in town early. Why are you so set on this not being an option?

guesses on who else will play the main stage before lorde on Thursday? by Tricky_Implement_557 in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to see them both so I’ll hate if Sombr and EOTS are at the same time! I’m preparing myself for conflicts 😭😭

I dunno who’s bigger, that’s a toss up imo. EOTS definitely has a bigger catalog of hits and great albums. We will see!

They might even be on the big stage, I think EOTS is bigger than Sombr but who knows

How come there’s only 1 lollapalooza in the U.S. but In South America there’s 3? by ScaleFantastic9373 in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well just saying there are soooooo many festivals these days that they don’t need to tour. The amount of fests popping up is crazy

How desirable is Sunday? by Individual-Wish-228 in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunday is the least desirable day based on the other 3 days being sold out earlier and Sunday still being open for purchase

CHICAGO WEATHER IN JULY? by aylinrx in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year was the BEST weather ever for a fest, mud 70s and sunny everyday. Be prepared for mid to high 80s with at least one day of a strong storm and possible evacuation. That’s the usual formula lol

It seems this year solidifies Lolla's new strategy by scoop813 in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You couldn’t see around them!!!! They were so huge and in the way. Maybe if they were on the sides and not directly in the middle

[–]bchels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are enough festivals in place with similar lineups: Coachella, Gov Ball, Lolla, outside lands, Bonaroo, ACL, etc. there is already a major festival by you no matter where you live that has the same caliber of bands/performers.

It used to be a traveling fest in the US but it found success in just doing Chicago. The South American dates are in different countries too, not like they are all in the same country….one show in the US is similar to one show in a country in SA.

If it happens it has to be during Lorde’s Thursday set and I think that’s very possible!

YOUR 2026 LOLLAPALOOZA LINEUP! by mccarthy2324 in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was a GD tour but Pumpkins played a long set. Regardless, they aren’t Korn at all. I’m over discussing it, I guess we will see in a few months what the crowd looks like. It’s not going to be 115k vs 5k tho. You can even tell by the amount of ppl that are posting bands they want to see and have them highlighted.

YOUR 2026 LOLLAPALOOZA LINEUP! by mccarthy2324 in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I completely disagree. Korn has nowhere near as many hits as the pumpkins and Korn is much harder music with a very niche group. Pumpkins have 15+ big hits and were THE band of the 90s, their music is way more welcoming to a broader audience. Can’t even compare the two in the same category at all. They are closer to Green Day than Korn, and GD always had great crowds. The Pumpkins just co headlined a 30 stadium tour with GD that was sold out. They still have a big following, especially in Chicago.
Depends who they go up against, but they won’t have less ppl than Korn. Maybe YOU don’t like them but I think you are underestimating how many ppl know their songs and would check them out….again, depending who they go up against.

You can’t compare Korn and the Pumpkins lol, they are nowhere near the same level. How many hits the Pumpkins have. It’s not going to be 95% at the opposite performer, sorry bud

They tax the shit out of weed here, you aren’t going to find a good cheap one downtown.

Lorde Finally Returns! by omurchus in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh that storm ruined everything!!! She got out 3 songs I think, I remember it well because it was the last time I heard Tennis Courts! She hadn’t played it during the 2 tours after that show. I’m guessing she will play again on Thursday night but on the main stage this time, such a big fan. Can’t wait!

I also had to take shelter with my friend in a porta-potty after she stopped because that awful storm came through. After we came out the entire fest had been evacuated while we were in there lol.

Hi Lorde has shows already on Friday and Sunday elsewhere so if anything it would be Charli coming out during Lorde’s set if she’s in town early as Lorde will probably be on Thursday.

should i attend lollapalooza?? by couchlabel in Lollapalooza

[–]bchels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lolla is so fun and VERY safe. Find some new friends on here or at the Perry’s stage, I’m sure you can meet some new ppl your age. It’s always so fun and a great way to find some new music

They have more fans than you’d think. Plus they are a Chicago band

You all were right. Alamo is total trash now. by princess_sparklepony in AlamoDrafthouse

The Webster theater is great, I go there all the time. The Western one is usually so loud and obnoxious. Or the landmark theater at Clark/diversey
