In case there’s one person out there who needs convincing that Lollapalooza will indeed be worth it this year — this goes out to you, the weary skeptic. Since tickets went on sale in March, a buzz has been building around the long-anticipated summer music event. This August, Chicago’s Grant Park will be the spot of congregation for eager rock-and-roll fans who’ve been waiting a year for such a festival. The three-day festival boasts performances from Bloc Party, MGMT, Cat Power, Gnarls Barkley and more. In case you need further incentive, consider the headliners: Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails, Rage Against the Machine and Kanye West. There are also comedy acts and a scavenger hunt. Last year’s festival grossed over $9 million and this year’s is sure to top that. So grab your ticket to this summer’s biggest musical event while you still can.
