I'm unhip, uncool, unaware of current pop culture. I'm no longer tragically hip. You see.. Lollapalooza has been canceled.
My first thought was: Lollapalooza still happens? In my younger, hipper days I and Dinosaur Jr. played: heaven. The year Hole, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Beck and Cypress Hill played: second best. Yee haw. This year, of the 30+ acts that were supossed to play (in what was being heralded as one of the best lineups ever, I have heard of 5. 5! and one of them is Morrissey - a flashback from my youth. Though the Pixies, alone, are worth the price of admission.
Oh my God, Lollapalooza started 13 years ago. Where does the time go? Excuse me while I pause to contemplate my mortality..-----

Even though I wasn't planning on going to Lollapalooza (festivals give me a headache), this is sad news because there are a lot of good bands on this year's roster. Bands that you and I grew up with, definitely, but also lots of good young bands that are carrying on the tradition.
