Recommended Acts for Lollapalooza 2017 Day One



As a veteran of seven Lollapalooza festivals, I generally know my way around the Grant Park craziness.  If the weather actually holds up and they don't shut the festival down Thursday evening, here is part one of my picks for Lollapalooza acts to see for 2017.

Thursday:  I'm also recommending sets that you can actually go and see a complete set, so there will be runners up that will be tough acts you'll miss.  You know, those crazy things called logistics and time, and not having a time machine.  Temples, 2:30-3:30, Grant Park stage; George Ezra, 5:30-6:30, Lake Shore; Cage the Elephant, 6:30-7:45, Grant Park; Lorde, Bud Light, 8:45-10.  Runners up:  Spoon, Lake Shore, 7:45-8:45; Muse, 8:45-10, Grant Park.

In the post for Friday-Sunday coming soon, you'll see more of the cruelty of space/time come into play, as there will be difficult choices to make.  I'll be back later with the rest of the fest.
