This sentence from Yahoo sticks out like a sore thumb for me.

Quote. "But a Soundgarden tour routing is still a work in progress, due to Cameron's prior commitments with Pearl Jam in the spring and summer."

Spring - JazzFest
Summer - Europe

I heard about Soundgarden confirming the Lolla gig this morning on the radio in Montana...

Sorta suprised no one said this yet.... So ill just do it in big obnoxious large text.

They better be the main headliner.

If Lady shit shit gets priority over Soundgarden than that is just sad.

High Fidelity 2000

And sharing the stage... the disco genius of Lady Gaga! :oops: :oops: :oops:

Lolla does this double headliner thing nowadays. Each main stage has an act that plays from 8-10 pm(or 830..depends on act). Last year it was KOL/Depeche Mode, Yeah Yeah Yeahs/Tool, and Janes Addiction/Killers. I'm sure that it'll probably be Lady Gaga and Soundgarden on the same night, seeing as they have completely different fan bases.

I'm already planning my trip to Chicago just in case Soundgarden does play. But am I the only one who would be bummed if Lady Gaga and Soundgarden play at the same time? I'd actually be interested in seeing Lady Gaga play. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be boring.

This sucks.. lola is fine. But summer tour means no PJ tour during that time. Thats right.. i'm selfish. F soundgarden. If they find another drummer than thats fine. But if its not a double soundgarden/PJ tour than I don't like it.

ITS ONE DATE

Why does everyone assume that soundgarden will do a large tour?
Why does everyone assume that there will be no PJ US dates if soundgarden plays shows?
Why does everyone assume that PJ will not tour in the spring or the fall if soundgarden plays lolla?
Why does anyone think that SG and PJ would play together?
Can anyone think of another band that only played lolla and had no other dates that year?


I just dont get the logic to some of these assumptions.

As if this moment, ONE soundgarden date is likely. Thats right one. It doesnt mean anything beyond that.
And it is highly unlikely that PJ and SG would tour together-cameron is not going to play two sets in a row and cornell isnt getting the band back together to split paychecks with Eddie. PJ and SG are coordinating and trying to accommodate each other-to everyones benefit and at considerable expense to the concert goer.

But hey, the killer is that I can see Matt coming into the warehouse announcing that SG wants to play some dates over the summer and Ed/PJ being incredibly indulgent of that desire.

Time will tell.

you've been on here alota years and you should know by now how much the fan boys/girls freak out bout everything little this band does. Agreed on every point cept the double of SG and PJ. I have a feeling it will happen. Don't be to surprised to see pj and Sg do some festival dates us around a double bill tour. Both bands are cash cows. Let's not look the other way to that.

Also--all the Lolla reports only list 5 headliners. They have 6(2 per night) these days. The biggest names for that sixth spot are still Jay Z and Pearl Jam, and I doubt it makes sense to have two non rock bands as headliners. I think that'd be a first.

Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne implied that they'd be there at Lollapalooza. Jay Z is going to be at the United Center in March, so I doubt he'll make an appearance. It could still happen with Pearl Jam, BUT I think Daily Swarm reported Soundgarden, GaGa and Green Day were taking the main stage, so I highly doubt anyone as big as Pearl Jam or Jay Z will make an appearance. I'm personally thrilled GaGa is going to be there, that means a ton of people are going to be on the other side of the park, and if my estimates are right, the Strokes will be playing the North Stage at the same time.
