Lollapalooza: Day 1 (Before)

You’re right.  I haven’t been posting much about Lollapalooza this year (or anything lately).  Maybe since I’ve been once before I feel like a veteran and it’s not such a big deal.  Maybe it’s because Wilco isn’t playing this year.  Lesson learned from last year: Less is more.  The first day I took a whole [...]
