Lollapalooza was such a milestone of generation x, it makes me sad to see its dead corpse still being dragged through the mud every summer… Would Perry Farrell really have tolerated a 'Perry's by Doritos' stage back in 1991? Somehow though he does now.

The one band I have never, and thought I would never, seen live is Rage Against the Machine. They just announced a new tour. Ticket Booked!
I bought tickets for RATM this morning too! I never thought I would have the chance to see them perform.
I saw Rage at Lalapalooza 3 in 1993. They were the second act. And they would have stolen the show if it wasn’t for Alice In Chains who destroyed. What a pit. Tool was there too that year. And primus.
Ditto. Saw it in Chicago. Know your enemy popped up on my Pandora yesterday. I did the math and realized it’s 28 yo ???

The commercialization of Lollapalooza was inevitable. They should’ve quit back in ‘95 when it was still good. But, I do think it’s a good thing since it gets people out, especially in this day and age of digital music.

Couldn't remember if I'd posted this already…
This album has been on repeat for the last two weeks. I'm a huge Craig Finn fan from before and this is his band from the late 90's. Indie rock with a noir-ish bent and literary lyrics that remind me of all the silly shit I used to do when I was young,dumb and spent my money on other things that Iron Heart.

I remember seeing RATM while the Republican National Convention was in Minneapolis. My ears are still ringing. Lots of proto-Antifa types roaming the streets.
Nick Cage tickets also went on sale this morning. I'd love to go and he is playing the best indoor venue I've ever been in, but I seem to be on an island with my Nick Cage fandom out here.

Forgive me, but is there an artist called Nick Cage, or are you referring to Nick Cave? I ask because I saw his US tour details released recently (and because I am a huge fan of his).

ha! weird. Nick CAVE. WTF is going on in my brain today?

I will be seeing him in Chicago. Saw him on his spoken word tour last year at a nice intimate venue. Unfortunately this tour is a quite large space.

The last tour saw him at a sold out Oslo Spektrum which has a 10000 ticket capacity. It was intimate af. I still don’t know how he managed that, it’s the site of some of the worst concert experiences of my life precisely because of it being an enormous concrete pig shed, but it was so personal and raw. The connection with him at 15m distance was insane.

The venue pictured holds 2.6k and the place he's playing in Denver holds 4.5k, but can be configured for different capacities and stage sizes.
Anyone catching his North American tour should seriously consider the Denver stop. Brand new music venue built from the ground-up to be a music venue by a music lover seeking to establish his career legacy. It is the ultimate indoor live music venue.
