Lollapalooza Lineup-- what should I check out/study up on?

I saw Courtney Barnett play at the Mercury Lounge in NYC earlier this year. She is an incredibly talented young songwriter. She's been touring with Billy Bragg recently.

Here is a review of her debut album. http://whenyoumotoraway.blogspot.com/201...split.html

I would go see Roadkill Ghost Choir just on the basis of their name (and probably be disappointed).

I feel at least 20 years older after looking at that list of artists.

I do a fair job of keeping up, and I only know about 15 and recognize another 5-10 out of these ~80 bands.
The lineup seems to be weighted (to me at least) much more towards "unknowns" and less toward "knowns"-- at least by my assessment.

I didn't * Kings of Leon because I just saw them..... dependiong on who's against them I may see them again.... would try to learn some of their older stuff to sing along to (I know the newer stuff inside-out.)

It doesn't matter because none of them will compare to the upcoming Chicago Moz show ;-)

I wonder when and where it will be rescheduled to when it's cancelled?

There's always that risk ;-)
