My Lollapalooza 2006 By   [84 more lists]

My first "weekend festival" Grant Park Lollapalooza (I attended most of the touring festival ones in the 90s) - a very solid show and one that has kept me coming back to Lolla. Great weather and the perfect location in Chicago, my hometown. Met some cool people and had a great weekend. Ranked by how much I enjoyed the set.

    Packed hometown crowd and great set - the only negatives being that it was only an hour long, and they didn't play Spiders.http://setlist.fm/setlist/wilco/2006/lollapalooza-chicago-il-3d6b523.html

    RHCP are not one of my live faves, but this was the best set I have seen them do out of the 7 or so times I have seen them. Great closer to the weekend, was shocked at how much fun I had dancing to a band that I am sometimes bored seeing.http://setlist.fm/setlist/red-hot-chili-peppers/2006/lollapalooza-chicago-il-3d6b527.html

  4. 4

    The Secret Machines (After Festival Show Offsite)

    75min blinder of a set by a band in their prime that never got the attention they deserved. This was the original lineup. I think the show was at the Hideout or Hideaway.

    OK set by RA standards (which are very hit and miss) - I think there were 2 or 3 Dead covers in the hour he played. http://setlist.fm/setlist/ryan-adams/2006/lollapalooza-chicago-il-bd6b542.html

    Great opening as they all came out in tennis outfits. Downhill from there, but I am no fan of live hip-hop, or hip-hop at all for that matter (though I really like both Gnarls albums). Bailed about 20mins after I got bored.http://setlist.fm/setlist/gnarls-barkley/2006/lollapalooza-chicago-il-1bd6b52c.html
