Lollapalooza roster rocks out
Los Angeles’ FYF fest earned praise on Tuesday for its three-day expansion and adventurous programming (including headliners Missy Elliott, Bjork, Frank Ocean and Nine Inch Nails). Lollapalooza, however, went straight down the middle for its lineup, which was announced Wednesday.
The longstanding Chicago festival put local hero Chance the Rapper at the top of an otherwise rockcentric bill that includes the Killers, Muse, Blink-182 and Arcade Fire.
Other festival-season mainstays such as the xx, Lorde and Run the Jewels will claim prime spots as well.
The fest will take over Chicago’s Grant Park on Aug. 3-6. Tickets are now on sale.
