| | Lollapalooza - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Lollapalooza is an American travelling music festival featuring alternative rock, rap, and punk rock bands, dance and comedy performances, and craft booths. | | | The explosion of grunge music in the early 1990s propelled Lollapalooza forward; the 1992 and 1993 festivals leaned heavily on grunge acts. | | | It began a churning effect for alternative music -- as underground bands broke through to the mainstream, they drew listeners to Lollapalooza, who would then see the next generation of underground bands on the second stage. |

| | Disquiet: reports: Lollapalooza 2003, un-wired |
| | Lollapalooza is widely regarded as having reinvigorated the festival circuit for a generation of music fans raised in the cathode glow of MTV. | | | Whereas Lollapalooza has been reborn as a largely alternative-rock affair, the generally rootsy jam band community is welcoming electronic music with open arms. | | | The last Lollapalooza tour, in 1997, was particularly high on electronic music. |

| | Lollapalooza 2005 Concert - Reviews From the Music Festival in Chicago - New York Times |
| | From its 1991 inception, Lollapalooza was always, and pointedly, a variety show: a proscriptive one, insisting to its audience that there was music it would be happy to discover. | | | Once they got there, Lollapalooza didn't seem so alternative: it signed off after 1997, resumed as a mainstream rock showcase in 2003, foundered and was canceled in 2004 and has returned with more than 50 bands on five rock stages over two days. | | | It was even funnier to hear it played at Lollapalooza, the festival that began as a conduit from indie to mainstream and, in its latest incarnation, was full of bands - like the Killers - whose songs have latched on to old indie styles that now sound so familiar they're accepted by pop radio stations. |

| | PopMatters Music Feature Lollapa-loser? A critical look inside the rise and fall of Lollapalooza 2004 |
| | As we wait to hear about the uncertain fate of a touring institution, the only certainty is that Lollapalooza 2004 is cancelled leaving an enormous void in the touring plans for many bands and their followers. | | | The Darkness has continued to build an audience in the US while Velvet Revolver has generated enough of a buzz for their debut album to open at number one of the Billboard albums chart. | | | Between Sonic Youth, PJ Harvey, Flaming Lips, Modest Mouse, Wilco, Pixies, Morrissey and Michael Franti there is at least a hundred years of touring and industry experience amongst these bands, and no less than fifty albums amongst these groups and their previous incarnations. |

| | Lollapalooza Canceled; Alt-Rock Tour Organizers Cite Low Ticket Sales (washingtonpost.com) |
| | Lollapalooza's troubles might have more to do with musical trends than the health of the concert industry, says promoter Seth Hurwitz, who had booked the now-canceled show at Merriweather. | | | Morrissey, the former lead singer of the Smiths, who has just released his first solo album in several years, packed a bunch of mid-size auditoriums in a recent solo tour. | | | Had it happened, the concert would have hewed closer to the original, out-of-the-mainstream spirit of Lollapalooza. |

| | Lollapalooza was written as a fortieth birthday present for Simon Rattle who was been a friend and collaborator for many years. | | | The term "lollapalooza" has an uncertain etymology, and just that vagueness may account for its popularity as an archetypical American word. | | | The "lollapalooza" motive is only one of a profusion of other motives, all appearing and evolving in a repetitive chain of events that moves this dancing behemoth along until it ends in a final shout by the horns and trombones and a terminal thwack on timpani and bass drum. |
