Opener: Juan Wauters

The late show sold out before I got my shit together, so I’m going to the 6:30 show. I saw this young Canadian at Pitchfork and he was awesome. I’m looking forward to this one. Bonus – I can be drunk and home by 10:00 pm.

Opener: Oliver

Opener: Clear Plastic Masks

Day 1 Shaky Knees Aftershow in Hotlanta.

I passed up seeing these weirdos the last time they played Lincoln Hall because Rodriguez was playing the same night. My take was that Rodriguez might not be back around, but of Montreal will. And I was right. Going to get down at this one.

Opener: Pillars & Tonges

The Both is Ted Leo and Aimee Mann.

– Lollapalooza Pre-Show –
Opener: Varsity

– Lollapalooza Pre-Show –
Opener: Pujol

Opener: Wooden Shjips

To be honest, I’m probably going to be pretty haggard at this point after 5 consecutive days of shows, culminating with Lollapalooza. But if somehow I’m magically alive, I’ll come check out this rad Chicago natives for free in Millennium Park.
