The 2091 Lollapalooza lineup is here.

If you didn’t know it already, here’s the lineup for the 2019 Lollapalooza music festival in Chicago, Illinois.  It’s…something.  The switch by Lollapalooza’s organizers from mostly rock acts to a wider variety of genres is clearly evident by now.  Ariana Grande is the headliner at a festival that used to boast Nine Inch Nails as a headliner.  Again, this is nothing new and Ms. Grande is a fine performer, indeed, but you might have to do a lot of research into this lineup if you’re looking for rock and some of its variants.  I recommend Idles for that.  Their set will probably be one of the loudest and wildest of the entire festival.

Keep your mind open.
