27

NIN, Radiohead, Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, Mark Ronson….BLAH.

Just because Miley Cyrus, Jonas Bros, Robyn and that Let me smell you dick girl aren't going to be there, doesn't make real talent Blah.

Can you just stop talking about music because you have absolutely NO MUSICAL TASTE at all!!!!!

Blah? says – reply to this

31

Kind of blah?? Kanye, Radiohead, a reunited Rage Against the Machine, MGMT, Wilco, Nine Inch Nails, Lupe Fiasco, Black Kids, The Ting Tings, etc. are "blah" to you?

Please, do let the public know what other unbelievably stacked concerts you plan on attending this year. I'm sure people would love to learn about them.
Anna says – reply to this

32

You're so wrong. It was announced months ago.
Mel says – reply to this

33

The link is not operational.
Anna says – reply to this

34

And for that matter, just because your shitty little pop female vox aren't playing, doesn't make the lineup "blah".

krist says – reply to this

39

perez, the link doesn't work. says it's forbidden. can you post the names yourself?
Danie says – reply to this

40

Coming from someone who thought that Lily Allen was the next big thing among all the other crappy acts you promote, this is a wonderful lineup. Perez, you know nothing about music.
dmd says – reply to this

41

NIN and Rage are the only bands worth seeing…hopefully rage will smash kanyes head through a speaker
Karri says – reply to this

42

Re: Britt – Yeah she is right. I looked at the lineup about a month ago cuz I was thinking about goign. You are pretty slow tubs. LOL
marcy says – reply to this

43

yeah, it's been up awhile and it's going to be amazzzzingggg…. love chicago.
bla? says – reply to this

44

blah?

nin and ratm alone make this the best line-up ever
Marky says – reply to this

45

The link doesn't work - but if you think it's kinda blah, it's probably kinda good.
Helen says – reply to this

46

This lineup is actually quite great to people who actually like real music.
looks says – reply to this

47

Until you see that they have dueling headliners and the few bands I would care to see seem to be going head to head each day. Blah.
jay says – reply to this

48

Yeah, I dont know what they were thinking when they added kayne, but other then that amazing line up
k-dog says – reply to this

49

ok first of all the line-up has been out for months. This is the schedule. Secondly kinda blah??? The line up for most of your shows are kinda blah……no they are mostly blah. Lollapalooza has a 2 hour set by Radiohead! it also has Gogol Bordello, Mates Of State, Bloc Party, The Cool Kids, Cat Power, The Raconteurs, Brand New, Lupe Fiasco, Rage Against the machine, Toadies, Battles, Broken Social Scene, Wilco, Kid Sister, Gnarls Barkley, Kanye West, Chromeo, Iron and Wine, Nine Inch Nails. Perez you are lame. Lolla is not Blah your writing though, yeah its been alota blah lately, like the concerts you put together/host.
erica says – reply to this

50

… yeah, they had this announced on Subway signs in Chicago last month …
bumbl says – reply to this

51

ummm…. Wilco? totally not 'blah' - and yes, as everyone else says, this is old news.
Kloch says – reply to this

52

They put all the best acts on Sunday and barely anything interesting on Saturday. How can you have NIN and Kanye West playing at the same time?! Aargh, I love them both. And Mark Ronson playing during part of NIN. That schedule should have been reworked. Happy to see Saul WIlliams, MGMT and the Brazillian girls also will be there.
looks says – reply to this

53

Re: Yep I – LOL so true.
NICOL says – reply to this

54

SUNDAYS LINEUP IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tracy says – reply to this

55

Actually, they announced the lineup months ago — but it still sucks, last year was awesome
mag says – reply to this

56

perez, i surely am disappointed with your categorization of the lollapalooza lineup as "kinda blah." you are obviously heavily misinformed about what constitutes "good" music. i guess i shouldn't be surprised though, with your head so far up madonna's ass, the so-called "queen" of pop. perhaps whomever inaccurately bestowed that title on her also gave you the name "queen of all media." because all i see are serious shortcomings here.
yermo says – reply to this

57

Can't see the link asshole… however, I know the lineup, it's been out for 2 months… if you think NIN, Rage Against the Machine, Kanye & Radiohead make for a "blah" lineup, you have no right to be speaking about music you fucking idiot.
Celin says – reply to this

58

Are you kidding….that's a great lineup. Radiohead, Cat Power, The National….I wish they were playing Austin City Limits….
eric says – reply to this

59

Hey, Fatty Perez.. link doesn't work. You are a pathetic excuse for a writer. You suck balls.. You are fat.. you have oily skin.. your mom aborterd the wrong fetus.. you have "gay" face. You give us worms. lol.
nikki says – reply to this

60

This is a great lineup!

You have absolute shit taste in music Perez. For someone all over Feist you'd think you'd have figured out her other band is BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE who IS playing.

Ans weren't you all over the Ting Tings a while back?

You're just pissed you weren't asked to go.

Ans like every one said, this has been posted FOREVER.

Please go back to whatever it is you did prior to your 15 minutes.
you a says – reply to this

61

kinda blah?!?!

sorry there was no katy perry or eric hutchenson on the lineup.

i guess radiohead, rage, nin and kanye west isnt faggy enough for you.
lolla says – reply to this

62

the lineup has actually been posted for a couple weeks now. didnt you have it originally posted on the site? the SCHEDULE is what just got announced.
shit says – reply to this

63

link didnt work for me but so we really give a shit anymore??

lollapalooza if fucking dead sorry to say. there arent many acts id really pay to see anymore. the last concert i went to was tool and that was worth it. otherwise, rock is fucking dead now and it sucks!!
Louis says – reply to this

64

Why do you read this site if you think Perez is an "Asshat" and a "Fat Doofus"???

You guys are Assholes….just don't read the site!

And yes, the link doesn't work BFD!!!!!! Is it really that important? Cry me an F-ing river!
MsAdventure says – reply to this

65

Get a grip, P. Not every person enjoys bubble gum pop. Particularly people with any education and taste.
Cmonk says – reply to this

66

I have to disagree, I think that's a great line up. I wish I lived closer!

The lineup was posted forever ago….
sara says – reply to this

70

too bad the lineup has already been up for months
Brianna says – reply to this

71

Not sure if you even read these Perez, but as someone who has been coming to this site for a loooong time, I have to say you're losing your touch. You should really check out the links andarticle BEFORE you publish it on the site, and DO SOME RESEARCH! As soon as you see something, you should learn more about it before you make yourself look like a dumbass!
liz says – reply to this

72

the lineup looks awesome. Damn perez you have not taste in music
ice says – reply to this

73

Are you kidding me? Kinda blah? RATM and Radiohead and Kanye and Lupe and MGMT, my head is still spinning. For someone who wants to "be an influence on the music business" you should diversify your tastes perhaps. We aren't all bubblegum blowing, electro-obsessed screaming idiots.
C says – reply to this

74

Yeah put some talent on your ipod! Manchester Orchestra!!!
The lineup is great and has been up for quite some time.
Zia says – reply to this

75

Ugh-Radiohead, Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, The Raconteurs and Love and Rockets constitutes a "blah" lineup? I want some of what you're smoking!
rumba says – reply to this

76

Link doesn't work. Perez, you need to get someone to check the grammar and spelling of your site. Often words are missing, and spelling or grammar is not right correct. Get it right!
tiff says – reply to this

77

yikes. better get ur adserver working. you got ads all over the place with no close button.
Jamie says – reply to this

78

Dude. This isn't new information. The lineup was released months ago!!!
smart says – reply to this

79

The line up has been out there for months, peeps, but the actual schedule just came out today.
Me says – reply to this

80

Just look at the Lolla website idiots!

And it's definitely not blah. It's just not Perez's type of music…because there are bands people have actuallly heard of!
THE K says – reply to this

81

ALRIGHT. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE SCHEDULING? SAME FOR COACHELLA. HAVING NIN VS. KANYE. WTF!!! RACONTEURS VS. BLOC PARTY. THE SCHEDULING DEPARTMENTS NEED TO BE FIRED PRONTO. SEEING MORE OF THESE ILLOGICAL SAME SLOT BOOKINGS. MAKES ME ANGRY
lisa4 says – reply to this

82

Perez - have you ever even listened to the Black Keys - they are amazing!
cassi says – reply to this

83

are you serious????? this lineup is better than the last TWO coachellas fucking combined!!!!
jeann says – reply to this

84

it had been announced several weeks ago..
Tandy says – reply to this

85

Kinda blah my ass!
jen says – reply to this

86

hate to say it, but you are wrong! this line up is fabulous!

THE NATIONAL & EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY…apparently mainstream music is the only focus in whoever posted this post. Check them out…they're pretty amazing!
JD3 says – reply to this

87

that line up kicks ass if you ask me. add in a little local talent per location and it looks like a winner to me. there are always DJs and other tent shows going on around the joint.
barne says – reply to this

88

oh perez, grab a six pound bag of jelly beans, a 2 liter of dr. pepper, and shut your mouth.
be bitchy about celebs…you know nothing about good music.
Alex says – reply to this

89

Lupe Fiasco, Gnarls Barkley, Duffy, Kanye West, Mark Ronson, Kid Sister, The Raconteurs are in no way blah.
robyn says – reply to this

90

with a few exceptions, that lineup is SO INDIE I JUST THREW UP IN MY MOUTH
l says – reply to this

91

Mates of State is the only one worth going to
B says – reply to this

92

yea…and AUstin City Limits Festival is just so so….what's up with that?
bk says – reply to this

93

You make me laugh. You have the worst taste in music yet you pretend as if your musical opinion matters. You're just pissed that Mariah isn't playing or Madonna. You symbolize what is wrong with today's awful mainstream music
deesn says – reply to this

94

looks like ACL 2 years ago.
linds says – reply to this

95

perez you are insane there are soooo many bands on that lineup that are so fucking amazing! maybe they're ahead of your time? ehhhh? ehhhh?
KARA says – reply to this

96

Re: Yep I – Sorry Perez, but I don't think that Robyn would bring in the crowds to Lollapalooza. And to all the others who think that this line up is blah, ARE YOU RETARDED?????
denis says – reply to this

97

BITE YOUR FUCKING TONGUE PEREZ!
this is the first time in a LONG time that i actually want to go to this!

you just don't recognize good music out these days, like go! team, girl talk, css, grizzly bear, nin, so many more!!!

STOP LISTENING TO TOP RADIO! >:O
tartb says – reply to this

98

it was announced months ago you dumbass, and the lineup is amazing, your taste in music is shit, your such a scene-rave fag.
Yuk-m says – reply to this

99

Kinda Blah!?!?!?! And maxim blender is hailing you as some kind of new-music guru?!?!?!
Scott says – reply to this

100

Kinda blah? This coming from the newly appointed Music Mogul who didn't even know who disturbed was a week ago…

Radiohead, Rage against the Machine and Kayne West… I'd say over 3 nights that's a pretty frickin incredible show to see…

Maybe is Robyn was headlining or Madonna or something it would be less blah?

As far as real music goes… this line-up is stellar, solid, and kick ass.

Sparkle it up, gurl!! Let us see that seXXy shine!!

Still thrilled from Beyonce's intimate behind-the-scenes video, we're ready to DANCE after watching this Single Ladies performance!!

The crowd was WILD for Bey when she made her first stage debut since giving birth to beautiful Blue Ivy. And from the looks of this performance, she gave 'em their money's worth and then some!
