As any music fan will tell you, this weekend in Chicago the massive music festival known as Lollapalooza will be going on. More than just a concert, Lollapalooza has a history of being part of new musical sounds as well as providing outlets for less mainstream artists of all kinds:
Lollapalooza, an annual music festival featuring alternative rock, hip hop, and punk rock bands, dance and comedy performances, and craft booths. It has also provided a platform for non-profit and political groups. Lollapalooza has featured a diverse range of bands and has helped expose and popularize alternative rock groups such as Pearl Jam, Nine Inch Nails, The Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Hole.
