Hey yall. I had a ton of fun at the Lollapalooza Music Festivals. It seems like it is meaningful, since the Chicago ‘cityscape‘ is in the background. Not sure if this is a more authentic experience than Pitchfork Music Festival, or if p4k ‘ripped off’ this music festival since they ‘copied them’ by being in Chicago.
From what I understand, Lollypally is thrown by the bro from Jane’s Addiction. He seems to be ‘very young looking’ even though he is probably 40-60 years old. I wonder why the Aerosmith bro looks like a ’saggy pirate’ but these two old bros look like ‘healthy 32 year olds’.

Seems like a lot of people were there 2 see ‘bro bands’, such as the Leon Kings Of.
Think these shirts mean that they are ‘down 2 fuck.’ (d2f)
Not sure if Passion Pit is a ‘bro band.’ Seems like this bro is ‘a bro’, so they have possibly ‘crossed over.’

Was standing in the VIP photo pit, and turned around. Saw some sweet ass underboob, and said a prayer to the Am Appy Gods 4 inventing that tube top. Has helped me see a lot of alt tit + nip slips.
‘Just chillin. Bein a fleet flox. Playing festival tunes.’
Is it still alt 2 listen 2 the song ‘A-Punk’ or is in mainstream since it is now utilized in movie trailers?
Hangin out, playin a music festival, holding ‘wacky instruments’ up 2 the microphone 2 achieve wacky effects.
Do u think that ur first festival experience is always ur most meaningful festival experience?

Feels like Woodstock when bros ‘get naked’ and ‘put mud on their cocks.’ Heard that if u use mud, u won’t get an STD, and the chance of ‘pregnancy’ is reduced by 67%.
Seems like the look of a bro who felt guilty, yet proud that he couldn’t wait in line to use a port-a-potty, so he just ‘crapped behind a bush.’
Overall had a lot of fun. I find out about a lot of new bands at music festivals. Don’t really use the internet for ’sampling/stealing’ tunes like most people. I just like to wander around public spaces, and see how people react to music in a live setting. Usually the most crowded stages are the best bands.
Is Lollypally mnstrm?
Would u rather go 2 Pitchfork Music Festival, Lolly, or a Chicago Bulls game?

Drove 10+ hrs to lolly with my ex-bf cause we bought tix when we were still together. think we purposely picked conflicting bands to see. wish i’d gone with some friends. rolled by the dj stage alone. is it less authentic to see live bands by yourself? feels like it. :/

@kal,
Question- Did you have loud NSA sex on a blue couch at 2336 N Milwaukee Ave the evening of July the 18th? You bear a striking resemblance to someone who did.

had so much fun @ lolly. feel that it is less alt than pitchfork. but still pretty meaningful. AnCo disappointed me a bit, though. whatevs. still had a good time.

dont think i want to go 2 a festy anymore
i see is ‘alt’ aka ‘undesirable’ aka ‘fat’ white girls
where r the keut azns and indns and hispanics?
i think things become less authentic as more ‘non-ethnic’ ppl find out abt it
2k9.7, think i am getting tired of ‘zany’ white ppl, except redheads cuz those r like minorities anyways

Why is there rave coverage on hipsterrunoff.com now? I am really confused.
He reports how HARDFEST (a rave) got shut down. And then something about rave fashion on lookbook.
Just don’t understand y’all.
