Lollapaloo­za roster rocks out

- — August Brown

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.
