How about Eddie being the Friday or Saturday night headliner?

    Not gonna happen, I don't think. Let's just see how these solo shows go first.

    That's a pretty bad idea you came up with.
    MUCH rather see Pearl Jam finish off a night than just Eddie.

    I could see Ed playing for fun, but it would be more like an afternoon or early evening set if he did, not a closing set.
    words seem so out of place.

    I went last year, mostly for Pearl Jam, but I loved so many of the acts (discovered alot of new music) and had such a good time that I am definetly going again this year... no matter what bands play. Chicago is a great city and Lollapalooza is a great time.

    I have thought about an Eddie solo set at Lolla, and it would fit in well in a late afternoon slot on Friday or Saturday. I would love it.

    Oh, and there is one, most likely false rumor off the Lollapalooza message board that is intriguing. A guy was at a show for the band Bang Camaro (who will be at Lolla) and he says that he thinks they were joking around but they mentioned Soundgarden. I know, it's not going to happen, but it would be my Matt Cameron fix. And anyways, Cornell is playing shows in europe this summer.

    I just wish he and McBain would at least bring Wellwater Conspiracy to a festival. I want to see Wellwater Conspiracy live ONCE before I kick the bucket. It's on my short list.

    hmm,

    Patti Smith played Saturday night last year... Maybe not the final act but it was definitely dark out.
