[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to Lollapalooza in 1991. Jane's Addiction, Siouxsie & the Banshees, NIN, Ice Tea, it was incredible! I was 15 and now I can't believe my parents let me go. [/quote]

+1. Festivals that are clean with proper food and toilets are awesome. I don’t understand the allure of Coachella- so dirty and long lines for crappy expensive food. Plus the line up consists of reams of bands no one has heard of before.

I went to lollapalooza 1994. It was awesome. Smashing Pumpkins, Beastie Boys, George Clinton & P-Funk, Tribe Called Quest, Breeders, Flaming Lip.

I’ve been to many local festivals. Last year I went to Ocean’s Calling in Ocean City. So many great bands!  Jack Johnson, Alanis Morissette, John Mayer, Sheryl Crow, Incubus, The Lumineers, Weezer, Fitz & The Tantrums, OAR, Third Eye Blind, Noah Kahan, Dispatch. This festival was so well done! Never had to wait for a toilet and they flushed. Never had to wait for food or drink. And so clean - they gave away free tshirts for every bag of trash collected. Genius.

At 50 years old, I’m going to oceans calling again this September. Another great line up: Blink-182, The Killers, Dave Matthews Band, 311, The Offspring, Counting Crows, Barenaked Ladies, Blues Traveler, OAR, cage the elephant, young the giant, big head Todd and the monsters. I’d much rather see these bands than the line up at Coachella - and I get to sleep in an indoor bed every night.[/quote]
