So true

Live photos (+ interviews): Lollapalooza

Lollapalooza was a week ago and I’m still catching up on life … didn’t get back to NYC till Tuesday afternoon because my flight got canceled Monday due to weather.

This is the third year in a row I’ve gone to Lollapalooza and each has been way different. In ’06 some friends and I just bought tickets and stayed with my friend’s brother in the city. Last year I was living in Chicago and covered the fest for venuszine.com, and then this year I was there coordinating the coverage for venuszine.com — which you can and should check out here! It was pretty hectic (huge understatement), but I had a lot of fun.

During the weekend I interviewed Chuck Inglish (Evan Ingersoll) of the Cool Kids, Will Sheff of Okkervil River, and Ninja and Nick Parton of The Go! Team. I also “met” (as in shook hands with, so I guess it doesn’t totally count) the Ting Tings, Gregg Gillis (Girl Talk), Saul Williams, and Nicole Atkins. It was pretty neat.

I think my favorite sets of the weekend were Okkervil River, The Go! Team, Radiohead, and Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings.
