Lollapalooza 2007 – Day 1.

Eddie Vedder at Wrigley Field.

Before heading down to Lollapalooza Julie and I caught the Mets – Cubs game at Wrigley Field where Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam sang ‘Take me out to the ballpark’. The Mets won 6-2 which means I’m 2 for 3 in Midwest Mets Games.

On to Lollapalooza:

Lollapalooza 2007.

We made it down to the show in time to see The Black Keys and Ben Harper which is all I really wanted to see the first day. I managed to work my way up to the stage, so we had a great spot for both shows. The Black Keys were awesome but as you will see there were camera guys everywhere.

There are only 2 guys in the Black Keys… yet there were 4 camera guys.

Four Camera guys, 2 members in the band.

Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals were classic. The only part of the show that was bad was when Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam came out and the douchebag camera man decided to sit directly in front of him and right on the stage so no one could see him play. It was just the worst thing I’ve ever seen.Ben Harper.Ben Harper and Eddie Vedder.
