Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. You didn’t think I was done talking about Lollapalooza, did you? No way. I have one, er, a couple final words to say about the fest. You know, The Rundown?
Here’s my two cents on the best, worst and most intriguing things at Lollapalooza 2011…
By Richard Giraldi \ 2 commentsOne highlight of Lollapalooza was the newly reunited Death From Above 1979. The hard rocking noise enthusiasts pack a powerful punch for a simple drum and bass – and some times keyboard – duo. DFA1979 singer Sebastein Granger was in a good mood, cracking jokes about the mud and giving shout outs to the Metro and Empty Bottle. During “Romantic Rights” Granger left his drum kit to dance and scream behind one of Lollapalooza’s fantastic sign language interpreters, who went along with it. The only unfortunate thing about the clip below is the comments Granger made after the song encouraging the interpreter to find him at his hotel room are cut out.

Lollapalooza is back with a line-up that’s full of up-and-coming local acts, legitimate buzz bands, arena rockers and a few head scratchers. So, we here at Loud Loop figured you might need some help deciding which bands to check out and which to avoid. And of course you know the headliners, so we won’t waste your time on those. Instead, these are our picks for can’t-miss acts those other eight hours this Friday, Saturday and Sunday…

Lollapalooza’s annual contest for electronica artists and DJ’s dubbed the “Lolla Remix Throwdown” returns this year to offer composers a chance to perform at Perry’s Stage during the festival this August, among many other prizes such as cash and studio time.
Contestants have until May 22 to submit an original composition or remix for the throwdown that will judged by a panel of music writers, DJs and local booking agents in addition to online voters. Both contestants and voters alike will be entered to win a pair of tickets to this year’s Lollapalooza.
