The early word is out and it looks like Lollapalooza has had half of its headliners revealed. While no official confirmation has been made, it appears, at least to
The Daily Swarm and its many industry sources, that the three-day festival will be top-billed by Lady Gaga, Green Day (still riding the crest of Dookie’s success), and recently-reunited-rockers Soundgarden. Rumors are also swirling like chocolate-and-vanilla swirl cones that The Strokes and Arcade Fire might play too! Plus, I’m speculating that the sixth headliner will be a back-from-the-dead Johnny Cash supporting the final volume of his American Recordings!
But, yes, those are all rumors at this point, so don’t get mad at me if plans change, but keep in mind that Lollapalooza has a pretty good track record of having its lineup revealed (at least the headliners) way earlier than the official announcement, which generally happpens in April.
The fest takes place August 6-8 at Grant Park in Chicago, IL.
