My Lollapalooza 2006
My first "weekend festival" Grant Park Lollapalooza (I attended most of the touring festival ones in the 90s) - a very solid show and one that has kept me coming back to Lolla. Great weather and the perfect location in Chicago, my hometown. Met some cool people and had a great weekend. Ranked by how much I enjoyed the set.
Packed hometown crowd and great set - the only negatives being that it was only an hour long, and they didn't play Spiders.

Great closer to the weekend, was shocked at how much fun I had dancing to a band that I am sometimes bored seeing.

3A great classic-packed Ween set, probably the most consistently good I have ever seen them.

The Secret Machines (After Festival Show Offsite)
75min blinder of a set by a band in their prime that never got the attention they deserved. This was the original lineup. I think the show was at the Hideout or Hideaway. Wolfmother killed it in the afternoon sun. Missed the first few songs, loved every minute of the rest.
