Because they're too cool and hip. Didn't you know they just put out a faux-disco record in 2017?

You can only attend if you buy their new album at Milwaukee Reckless tomorrow at 10:00am in person. First come first serve with wristbands passed out.

I have the album coming in the mail Saturday. I'll take a ride down there Friday afternoon and buy a cassette (should be the cheapest option right)? Get a wristband and then bring my vinyl to get signed.

Problem is you need to stop by Reckless on Friday to buy a copy of Everything Now to get a wristband for the signing. I assume those will go fast, and I'm not sure I will be able to get there in time. Edit: Wait, they gave out the wristbands this past Friday?? |

I assume those will go fast, and I'm not sure I will be able to get there in time. Edit: Wait, they gave out the wristbands this past Friday?? I went yesterday to get a wristband because I was going to WPF. My friend and I had to explain to 4 different people who didn't seem to understand my question of if I buy a CD from them (which was the cheapest option), since I got the LP through the AF website would it be cool if I brought that to have them sign. They kept telling me that I had to buy something from them. Finally, someone understood what I was saying and said "Looks like you found a loop hole". So I bought a CD, got a wristband and will be bringing my LP to get signed. It seemed like they had plenty of wristbands left. No one else there was interested in getting one. |

They have a screen printed version. And it doesn't have any line-up on it. And it is much bigger. It'll just cost you $175. |

I'd be more worried that there's going to be a decent amount of rain on Wednesday, could be quite muddy before you even get there on Thursday

Commemorative Edition $30 - Offset-printed with four-color process ink on heavyweight, uncoated paper. Includes complete band lineup. 18" x 24" the lolla t-shirt is close in price to this. on the way home Friday, I stopped in at the lolla pop up shop at 129 N. Wabash, and got the better half a 2017 lolla t-shirt. Even though the last lolla she attended was 2011 chile, and the last chicago lolla she attended was 2009 (the last act she saw that yr was lou reed's last u.s. concert), she occasionally wears the 2012 and 2013 lolla t-shirts I bought for her, most notably in the pic I took of her that I posted on fB of her carrying the 15 pound weight around a room to get stronger. |

Just looked at this lineup and I should definitely not be going to Lollapalooza this year.
White Reaper > Temples > The Drums > Liam Gallagher > Spoon
Slothrust > PUP > Cloud Nothings > Tegan and Sara > Ryan Adams > Whitney > Crystal Castles
Warpaint > Highly Suspect > Royal Blood > LIVE > Head and the Heart > Mac Demarco
Car Seat Headrest > The Shins > Arcade Fire
And even then, I hate like half of these bands. Someone please help.

That was 5 years ago and they haven't had a "reasonably priced" screen print since 2014 and even that was $60. And '11, '10, and '09 didn't have screen printed version either.

I'm curious to see how well this works. It definitely needs to be based on your GPS location and proximity for food/drink...otherwise you're going to have some Bars be completely out of certain items compared to others. I know they're also allowing folks to preorder merch for pickup. |

The Tribune is saying there will be "larger video screens at the Grant Park and Bud Light stages; sound system and restroom upgrades; and a new 'visual experience' at Perry's stage."
I thought the screens at the mains were already pretty big last year. That's good to hear since I'll probably just want to hang back during most of the headliners unless Blink plays Josie and I have to get lit.

Looks like no rain tomorrow, so the park won't be soaked on Thursday. Forecast for Thursday is looking bad tho  |

Really hope the Lakeshore and Titos sound is improved then. Also some of the headliners last year were kinda quiet, hopefully that all is fixed.
Great news about the screens
