📚 Signed Copy of Lollapalooza: The Uncensored Story of Alternative Rock’s Wildest Festival
By Richard Bienstock & Tom Beaujour – Foreword by Kim Thayil (Soundgarden)
What it is:
A signed, no-holds-barred oral history tracing Lollapalooza’s rise from a farewell tour in July 1991 to the defining alt‑rock cultural phenomenon of the ’90s—and its evolution into a massive modern festival.With over 200 firsthand interviews (bands, roadies, promoters, sideshows!), this book uncovers backstage drama, epic heat waves, and insider antics like Trent Reznor walking offstage in a 120°F Arizona desert meltdownWhy it matters:
It’s been called “a firecracker of a book” by The Washington Post and “a humdinger of an oral history” by Kirkus, cementing it as essential reading for any ’90s rock fan or nostalgia hunter. One reviewer summed it up perfectly:“The Lollapalooza tour defined 'alternative culture' in the nineties … the book collects the musicians’ unbelievable-yet-true stories into an indispensable page turner” — Rolling Stone
Why you’ll love it:
- Signed & collectible – personal touch from the authors
- Behind-the-scenes exclusives: raw photos + untold stories
- Foreword by Kim Thayil, elevating it from history to legend
- Mixes rock nostalgia, grit, humor, and cultural critique

Heck. I went to that tour and don't remember seeing soundgarden. In NJ. Maybe they didn't play that show?demetrios said:"I was terrified that Ed was going to kill himself": Chaos and Carnage with Pearl Jam at Lollapalooza 1992https://www.loudersound.com/bands-artists/lollapalooza-uncensored-story How Pearl Jam’s out-of-control shows on the 1992 Lollapolozza tour sparked crowd frenzies verging on riots
Also ministry and RHCP were on when it was still light outside. Not sure who closed the show. Will have to do a little research.0 -
