I have a confession to make. I did not take all of these pictures. You see... I'm just too short... I set up the camera, and hand it over to Adam, who has 8 inches on me... and he happily shoots away and captures the artists where I just mostly capture the people's hair in front of me.... Don't get me wrong, I took a few. But Adam took more. There, I confessed it :P
Sooo... good news is, Lolla day 3 was by far better then Day 1 and 2 combined. So much great stuff on Sunday!
We had to get there pretty early to see Rodrigo y Gabriela, guitar virtuosos.
Then Amy Winehouse was on. But the sound was pretty crummy so we left to go see ....
Los Campesinos! They were a lot of fun, never heard them before but definitely enjoyed 'em!
Then we got some Italian Ice... heheh
Apostle of Hustle was next. I would have liked them a lot more if they could have spared me the politics for a few minutes.
And then, we camped out in front of the stage for Yo La Tengo so we didn't really see anyone for an hour... unfortunately, Iggy Pop was playing at the next stage over and as much as we would have liked to not have heard him.... we were forced to... ugh.
Here's Ira from Yo La Tengo. Awesome rockstar face, Ira!! (I actually took this one, we camped out so we were close enough that I didn't have anyone's hair in front of me)
Ohhh... I forgot. Beatle Bob was there to introduce them. We love Beatle Bob.
As soon as they were done, we high-tailed it over to the other side of the park to catch My Morning Jacket performing with the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra. It was definitely my highlight of the night (and the festival!!), this performance was amazing!!!
well yeah... we were late.. so we were pretty far back.
A few more shots from the night.
Cafe Tacuba
Pearl Jam
the end....
Ok, so are you all glad I am done posting my concert pics? 'Cause Adam keeps making fun of me because nobody has commented on any of my Lollapalooza blog posts... :P Come on, some of you like to rock, right?
