'looza

Okay, I started writing this a week ago, so it's a little late, but here you go anyway.

Some highlights from my Lollapalooza weekend:

• The music (obviously): Daft Punk, The Rapture, Silverchair, Muse, The 1900's, Regina Spektor. These are the artists that stand out in my mind.


• Bringing a sweater on a whim on Saturday and being thankful that I did.


• Hearing a guy with a mohawk tell me he liked my hair.


• Settling a dispute between some drunkards sitting behind me.


• Catching up with some friends on Sunday.


• Watching a crane raising some photographers up over the crowd to take pictures, and nearly getting stuck up there.


• Several times accidentally finding myself in the pot-smokers corner of the park.


• Seeing a guy dressed head-to-toe in black (a suit!!) on what had to be the hottest day of the year.
• Beetlebaum (or however you spells it) introducing The 1900's.
• A random girl from the audience getting up on stage during The Rapture and managing to dance around for quite a while before security noticed she was up there.
• Regina Spektor being very gracious about the fact that half the audience wasn't listening to her.
• Getting a flip-flop tan.
