The Gaslight Anthem @ Lollapalooza 2009
12:35 p.m. (1:35 p.m. est)That live report from Lollapalooza comes to us from Omaha.com. Sounds like not a blast so far. And there is a STREAM (a poorly advertised one).It's raining in Chicago, which is perfect weather for an outdoor festival. Good thing I brought a raincoat.
Most people weren't as fortunate and had to buy a poncho for $5 outside of the festival. Who knows how much one costs inside the grounds.
While hiding from the drizzle in the media tent, I'm listening to Hey Champ. I haven't heard them before, but they're a sort of pop indie group. Like what I've heard so far.
I had planned to get here earlier and see Hockey at 11:30, but catching the train and walking a mile or more to Grant Park got me here a little too late.
I don't have anyone in particular that I want to see until Bon Iver at 3 p.m., so I'm probably going to wander the grounds and familiarize myself. [Omaha.com]
Like All Points West this past weekend, Chicago has rain, Chicago has Hey Champ, and Chicago has a random iclips.net stream of some of the bands at the festival. Unlike All Points West, Chicago has The Gaslight Anthem (I'm watching and listening to them on the stream as I type this) (they allow umbrellas there).
Tonight's Lolla headliners are Kings of Leon and Depeche Mode. Stream schedule below...

$5 bucks for a poncho? I'm pretty sure you can get on at a 99 cents store! Hahah.

So the main stages won't be streaming?

jesus christ the gaslight anthem is bad. i keep giving this band a shot, but to no avail. you guys love bruce springsteen, it's obvious. too bad you can't write lyrics half as good (they're a cheesy homage at best), and you don't have half the voice (or guitar chops) of the boss. why even try? even fucking sam's town is better

after seeing this video I lost any respect I had for Perry Farrell. Why is he even bothering with music anymore? He and his wife should stick with porn exclusively.
