My Lollapalooza 2006 By Clark Benson [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.

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 „

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. „ - 5Hard rock, Heavy metal, Blues-rock, Alternative metal, Psychedelic rock, Neo-Psychedelia, Stoner rock MoreAustralia, SydneyBrütal Legend, Dimension, Mind's Eye / Woman, Dimension, Cosmic Egg, Wolfmother, White Unicorn, Woman, Love Train, Dimensions, Wolfmother EP, ITunes Live from Sydney, Joker & The Thief, Cosmic Egg, New Moon Rising MoreInterscope Records, Universal Records, Island Records, DGC Records, Modular Recordings More“ Wolfmother killed it in the afternoon sun.
