First Coachella, now Lollapolooza.

My best friend form Highschool, Rob, and his wife Angela are coming out here to go with us in July. We can’t wait. It goes without saying that the Sugars will be there, since it’s in their backyard.

Again it’s going to be freakin incredible. There’s a little overlap from the last show, but who cares.

I remeber the first Lolopalooza I went to- it was the one with Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, Ice Cube, The Chilli Peppers, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Lush, Ministry and I don’t remember who else. I was floored.

I went again a few years later for the Beastie Boys, etc., but it was fading pretty quick. It’s cool to see them take a lesson from Coachella and the other festivals and bring it back to the Indie-Rock bands who fly under MTV’s radar.

I think the best festival I’ve ever been to was the HFStival in DC back in like ‘92. I got to see TMBG, Catherine Wheel, Wolfgang Press, Too Much Joy, The Ocean Blue, The Charltons UK, and the Soup Dragons. That was incredible. The Soup Dragons headlined and at the end of their set this guy bungee jumped out of a hot air balloon durring “I’m Free” and we all went nuts. There were 30,000 people there having a blast all day. It only cost 7 bucks.
