anyone been to either one of these festivals? share your experience
the only good shows from either one were lollapalooza 1&2.
you go to either one?
this year is lining up to be pretty cool with nin and radiohead, it'll also be my first festival..
i went to a festival once. it sucked. wasn't lollapalooza on boneraro or whatever its called though.
They are only cool if alot of your favorite bands are playing.
Nothing worse than paying all that $$$$$ to travel and drink and camp out and only liking a few of the bands.
wtf festivals rule. take some drugs next time man.sort it out.
I went to bonnaroo 3 times before it turned into a shit fest. It's way too big now and they book lame bands now. The crowd has slowly turned into shit. The late night sets are pretty much the only thing worth checking out at that fest.

i assume that comment was aimed at me. well. i did get my first semi-handjob at the festival but it still sucked. it wasn't really a festival though. more of a live aid type of thing. my uncle had a hand in setting it up and gave me 2 free tickets. bono and sheryl crow and i think busta rhymes was there. i don't even really remember. i just remember being bored out of my mind until my then-girlfriend put her hand on my dick.
you know you're at a shit festival/show when you have to take drugs to enjoy it.

Festival tripping is the funnest around. Everyone is zonked and late night shows are sick as hell. Music doesn't end until the sun comes up. Molly all night!

Agreed

i went to lollapalooza once, forgot the year, think it was 1997.
it was the year korn were suppose to play and the ended up cancelling at the last minute.
they were the reason we had bought tickets, this was when i was still a korn fan.
looks like its a festival season again for NIN.
just got word that they're playing at the Pemberton Valley Festival July 25-27
3-day passes start at $269 ++
also playing?

I am all for festivals. theyre expencive but its worth the money. and seeing bands is only a part of the whole thing for me. hanging out with friends making new ones and boozing out are as important as the music. aww sometimes theyre even more important than the bands playing, it debends.
Maby the festivals in US of A are a bit different from the ones we have in Europe. Dunno, never been to any festival in the states. I remember chino talking about it though in an old interview.
got my tix to lolla!
lawlapalooza.
haha Imma be @ lawlapalooza!
the line-up is pretty weak.
i'd give a lot to see pearl jam though.
pearl jam isnt there this year
this years hasnt been 'officially' confirmed, but inside rumors have nine inch nails radiohead and ratm headlining
ah you're right. i was looking at the 2007 lineup.
it woulda been awesome to have seen daft punk tho
gross...daft punk.......
I got my email to print my tickets off..horray!
