Lollapalooza to Return to Chicago in 2007 and Beyond

According to Lollapalooza's website, the festival is confirmed for a return visit to Chicago's Grant Park the weekend of August 3-5, 2007. Moreover, the festival plans to keep going back to Chicago every year through at least 2011. Given how good this year's festival was, I'll likely be reserving myself a room for next year soon.

This is normally the point in the post where I'd tell you to go to Live Lollapalooza to download MP3s of performances from this year's show. However, they only have about 1/4 of the bands up, and a good chunk of those are only partial sets. Not sure why they're so chintzy about this. Maybe it's the bands, maybe it's the labels, who knows. Either way, it's not that impressive if they're only offering about 20% of the performances from the weekend.

That said, I may still pick up the Hold Steady set (which is a full set) and the Frames (half set). Or maybe not.
