So, I know it’s a day late and a dollar short and all, but just in case you’ve been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, I figured I’d post this year’s Lollapalooza lineup here for your viewing pleasure. Coldplay, Eminem, Muse and Foo Fighters occupy the top of the bill at this year’s fest with a who’s who of up-and-comers, indie stalwarts and rock vets rounding out the rest of the overstuffed bill. Three day passes for the 20th Annivesary of Lollapalooza at Grant Park in Chicago, IL (Aug 5-7, 2011) are on sale now, get them while you still can.

2011 Lollapalooza Lineup
BabyStew is not impressed.
Not even DFA 1979 Steve? All the kids love the DFA reunion shows.
In terms of headliners, I must admit I’m a bit of a sucker for Coldplay and this is their first (announced) US show in a couple of years. As far as the other “big acts” go, they don’t do much for me, but even a indie tastemaker like yourself must have a few favorites amongst the undercards.
