One of the things I always tell people I love about Bonnaroo is the lack of noise ordinances and curfews, allowing bands to start late at night/early in the morning, helping create a suspended and loopy state of reality over its four-day stretch. On the downside, I still feel like a truck hit me. So it's somewhat refreshing and heartening to my legs to see Lollapalooza's timetable, which as always packs as many acts as possible across its stages before Grant Park's 10PM cutoff. For the most part the conflicts are limited, but there will be some decisions ahead: e.g. Fleet Foxes vs. Crystal Castles; Andrew Bird vs. of Montreal; Gang Gang Dance vs. Dan Deacon; TV On The Radio vs. Lykke Li; the triple-header Lou Reed vs. Deerhunter vs. Snoop Dogg; and the headline hours may be tough on the masses on Saturday (Beasties or Tool) and Sunday (Jane's or the Killers). Here's a look at the spread:
