Jacket, Queens of the Stone Age, Common, Gnarls Barkley, Violent Femmes,

130 on ten acres that went from ten in the morning all the way to eleven
at night on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, August 4th through 6th. It was
estimated that 35,000 people were in attendance each day. Lollapalooza
was held at Grant Park, next to Lake Michigan in downtown Chicago. The
Hard Rock Hotel is located across the street from the park on Michigan
Avenue. Marc Schoenberg, Stern Pinball's Director of Project Management,
was in attendance.
Marc says, "The V.I.P. Lounge was a special place to be for this year's
Lollapalooza. The pinball machines were constantly being played by musicians
of all ages, and clearly everyone was having a great time."
