Lollapalooza Announces 2009 Lineup

The 2009 Lollapalooza lineup was announced today with few surprises amongst the biggest names (Depeche Mode, Tool, the Killers, Jane’s Addiction, Beastie Boys, and Kings of Leon). The three-day event will take place at Chicago’s Grant Park August 7-9 and feature more than 100 artists representing the full musical spectrum (or just about!).

If you’ll be making the trek to Perry Ferrel’s promise land, then make sure to check out these lesser known PopAwesome recommendations… Rye Rye (M.I.A.’s protege), White Lies (amazing!), Glasvegas (you have to see “Geraldine” live), Cage The Elephant (crazy hillbillies who put on one crazzzzzyyyyy show), A-trak (check our contest out here), and Delta Spirit!
