Joey finally got up with his parents this morning; they had been to Frederick, MD to see his grandma. She's awake and lucid now, but unable to walk now. Bummer, but at least now we know. Feeling lazy today, I'm still recuperating from my vacation, hehehe.
-2ND STAGE- We moseyed over to the second stage and caught the last of Boysetsfire's show, they sounded pretty good. Then this British band called The Music came on and put on an excellent set; I was surprised. The lead singer bounces around and whirls like a dervish, I thought they were fun to watch. The guitar riffs were very catchy too. I give em 9 out of 10. Other than that, I didn't really bother with the second stage. After we watched some of The Music we ran back to the pavilion to catch the Donnas.
-THE DONNAS- Played their own brand of quirky, beer-soaked rock and roll and they were great! These girls can play, and party, with the best of them. The bass player is looking a mite chunky, maybe it's time to switch to lite beer, girls! They played a cover of "Strutter" by Kiss and did a tremendous job, the crowd responded to them pretty good, and performed a lot of their songs from the latest album, Spend the Night. Good, good, good. I give them 7.5 out of 10. Afterwards at the FYE (Fuck You Everybody) booth they signed autographs (which you had to buy a cd to be able to get in line. Bastards.) and Rich got his vinyl Donnas signed, they were pleasantly surprised that he'd brought it to Lollapalooza, smiled, and they all shook his hand. They signed the outside cover and the inside sleeve under each of their names, verra cool! They are so gracious, sweet, and down-to earth it's unbelievable.
