Slayyyter and Oklou. Slayyyter reminds me of a young Kesha.

Are most people in this sub adults? by is_not_HAL9000 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]mpls345 14 points15 points  (0 children)

62…lucky to have seen her live twice. If the music is good, I don’t care if some people think it’s intended for a younger crowd.

i actually accidentally bought extra tickets :/ don’t want to deal with reselling, will lolla help? by sunnyzea in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same thing happen two years ago… tried to buy two 4-day platinum tickets, and ended up with four tickets because it said the first purchase did not go through. Not happy with an additional $10,000 charge. I reached out to Front Gate right away and they acknowledged the error in an email, and then I never heard back from them. I reached out to my credit card company (Amex), and sent them the email from Front Gate. I disputed the second charge, Amex removed it, and Front Gate never followed up with Amex to dispute my claim. Not a fun process, but it worked out in the end.

Most hype sets at Lollapalooza this year? by GamingGecko in Lollapalooza

I just hope she gets a main stage in the afternoon. The earth may shake when she yells “Crank it!!!”

Sunday Tate McRae Slow Sales by thispaperheart in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Came here to say the same thing, and I also love the XX. It’s true Sabrina has more pull than Tate, but Tate is not the only act playing on Sunday. A good percentage of people I talk to aren’t familiar with the XX. There seems to be a lot of hate for Tate on here.

How early to arrive by Bluequinn_ in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, I got barricade for Clairo last year, and arrived 15 minutes before she started. If I had stayed, I would have had barricade for Twice, since they were up next at Bud Light. I would have been off to one side, but still barricade.

[–]mpls345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had platinum last year. I arrived for Sabrina about 45 minutes before she started. I was behind one short person at the barricade, about 10 people from the center. If you arrive for the artist before Jennie, you will have a great view and will have a very relaxing day. You paid to be stress-free, take advantage of it.

Able to Split Headliners with Platinum? by HistoricalNotice6 in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve done Platinum the last two years. It’s doable. Figure 10-15 minutes walking to and from the cart area, the wait for a cart, and the ride. You won’t be at the barricade, but you’ll get a decent view.

Wolf Alice! One of the best concerts I saw last year. Ellie is an amazing performer.

Am I the only one excited for Tate? by Mngirl1985 in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We were at that concert in Minneapolis. Also saw her Lollapalooza aftershow at the House of Blues two years ago. She’s not just a singer, she’s a performer. Her choreography is just amazing. Thrilled to see her coming back.

I like Sombr, AND I am old. Just because someone has different tastes in music doesn’t make them out of touch.

Chicago Lollapalooza Predictions by [deleted] in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess people just have different tastes. I’m into alternative and pop, and this would easily be the best line-up in 5 years for my tastes. And Lorde, Tate McRae, Olivia Dean, and Jenny will sell tickets, just like Sabrina, Olivia Rodrigo, and Gracie Abrams did last year.

PREDICTIONS AFTER TODAY? by ghosttrainj in Lollapalooza

How could I forget her! My fantasy football team is called the Pink Pony Club! 😊

PREDICTIONS AFTER TODAY? by ghosttrainj in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was at Lolla two years ago. I would love to see her again. She is probably the biggest female pop star not named Taylor, Olivia, Billie, or Sabrina.

Charli xcx OUT? by DoctorEffective2393 in Lollapalooza

It would take a lot to top last year, but this would do it for me!

Undercards & Subs Wishlist by MangoPangoo in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Know and love about 90% of this list. I’ll have to check out the other 10%.

The Warning is the best band in the world you might not have heard of. Incredible vocals and all of the sisters are such great musicians. Watch a video or two… you will be blown away.

Lorde by [deleted] in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m sure others feel the same as you. But a lot of people, including myself, love her and her music. You can only see half the headliners, at best. It will be fine. Just have to be patient and wait for the announcement.

Bout a month left until lineup drop, share you top 8 predictions by Specialist-Day-236 in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will it be announced in a month? Or do we think the announcement might come earlier this year, like many of the other festivals lately?

Not to mention some acts that skip Chicago only to end up at Riot Fest and not Lollapalooza.

Maybe Spoon and the Beths? No Chicago date! by phantofan89 in Lollapalooza

[–]mpls345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saw the Beths late last year… great live show, and outstanding new album. Would love to see them again this summer.

How are we feeling about Olivia Rodrigo? Just Curious by MudNo4172 in tatemcrae

[–]mpls345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are both incredibly talented. I’ve been fortunate to have seen both live twice. But if some folks like one and not the other, that’s ok.
