No rest for the weary, says the internet. Just as I'd poured coffee in the cup and myself on the couch this A.M. in an attempt to rehab some Bonnaroo soreness, we received notice that Lollapalooza 2008 has finalized their dancecard. Time to start microplanning the next fest! We'll be reporting live from Grant Park this summer, and if you'll be there, too, I guess it's never too early to start scheduling your weekend. Especially if you plan on seeing Kanye West, who's slated for 8:30PM Sunday night (which means he'll go on at 4:30AM, obvs).
After a quick glance I'm not seeing too many potential conflicts for the day stuff, save maybe Battles/Broken Social Scene/Lupe Fiasco on Saturday, and Girl Talk/Gnarls Barkley on Sunday. Wisely, Lolla's slated no competition for Friday night -- it's Radiohead at 8 on the mainstage, while the rest of the park goes dark. The other headlining slots should cut the crowd in interesting ways: Rage Against The Machine vs. Wico Saturday night, Nine Inch Nails v. Ye on Sunday. And by interesting I mean testosterone.
