                                I honestly didn't know Lollapalooza was still a thing. What kind of a line-up do they have this year?

                        Lineup comes out tomorrow morning but rumored headliners are Eminem, skrillex, arctic monkeys and kings of Leon. Pretty weak, but it's right down the street from me so I like to go every year.Heretic;1596290 wrote:I honestly didn't know Lollapalooza was still a thing.

                                I usually buy as many tickets as possible and then re-sell them at 3 or 4x the price once the event gets closer.

Not to mention the fucking server for lolla's website crashed during this. How do you not predict that your website is going to have a ton of hits at 10 am when the tickets go on sale? Ugh

                        I couldn't get any. I was on there right at 10 and it was just on stand by for an hour.

                                Although I am being a bit of a hypocrite, I attempted to buy a pair of Ultra tickets to flip and their servers crashed . It also did it last year.
It's just bullshit that people are allowed to checkout large quantities of tickets with the sole intent to sell.
I was able to buy a Mysteryland ticket about an hour after they went on sale, it was surprisingly easy.

                                Is it normal to have to buy tickets before a lineup comes out? Rock on the Range is the only big show I have ever been to, but it just seems weird.

                                It seems to be getting more popular. I've never done it before, until Mysteryland came about. I bought the tickets 3 months back, the lineup came out 2 weeks ago.

                                Don't buy three day passes.  I've have went the last few years and tickets are always being sold cheap outside each day.  You can get a ticket each day for $50 at most and usually cheaper.  The after shows are the tickets you really should be worried about.

                                I would also expect Lorde Avett Brothers Foster the people zed and childish Gambino to be top 12

                                Eminem, Childish Gambino, Outkast and Calvin Harris is a pretty nice collection of headliners, though admittedly live rap is pretty blah. BTNH sucks live and that's my favorite group of all-time.
Calvin Harris would be awesome, though, and others here have said good things about Gambino live.

I've have went the last few years and tickets are always being sold cheap outside each day. You can get a ticket each day for $50 at most and usually cheaper. The after shows are the tickets you really should be worried about.

                                Calvin Harris should not be considered a headliner by one of the top 3 music festival in America.   This is probably the worse top 6 Lolla has ever had the undercard better be stacked.  I would rather do forecastle and see jack white and Outkast.
