LOLLAPALOOZA - Saturday Storm

Around 3-4 P.M. they put a pause to Lollapalooza due to a heavy storm. I was super worried that they would not re-open because I had not yet seen any artists I went for. I mainly only went to see one person in particular.. The Weeknd! Thankfully around 6 P.M. (which was when The Weeknd was supposed to play) the festival re-opened & they scheduled all the bands to play an hour later then the original time! Cheee!
As soon as I got inside I rushed to the stage The Weeknd was performing at. It was extremely muddy but at that point I had endured a lot of rain, a little mud wasn't going to matter to me. I met some cool girls from California while waiting for him to start. They were really nice & helped the wait time pass quicker.  :-) The Weeknd was better live then on record which is saying something considering he sounds amazing on record too. Abel Tesfaye you are so talented & I ♥ you. :3 One of my top favorite artists, ya'll should definitely check him out!

LOLLAPALOOZA - Before the Storm!


While in Chicago I went to the famous music festival Lollapalooza in Grant Park! I was mostly by myself the entire time which was a tad lonely when everyone was partying their ass off, but oh well. I still enjoyed the live music & people watching. I got to see the famous Buckingham Fountain, talk to the dude at the Rock The Vote tent, drink some boxed water (because Lolla is eco-friendly like that), eat my first Chicago style hot dog, chill out & see live music (Chief Keef known for I Don't Like pictured above), & see a bunch of artists at work. After all of these shenanigans a crazy storm hit around 4P.M. & the whole park was evacuated!!!
