Today begins Lollapalooza in Santiago. One of the most hated AND beloved festivals here in Chile. It is expected that more than 80,000 people will attend daily.
For me, Lolla is the biggest shopping-mall Festival (something like Coachella but here in Chile). The experience inside is unethically full of advertising: every corner, every stage, every tent and every activity. But still..
Last year TOOL came to Southamerica for the first time thanks to Lolla. Otherwise, they would hardly have come. Historical. PLUS: Lollapalooza always offer on their lineup a considerable percentage of local bands. That's great. There are other massive Festivals here but chilean bands aren't always welcome and if it is so, very few end participating.
If you wanna watch some of it, it's being broadcasted by the official Lolla Chile Youtube Channel live below: this weekend play Deftones (today at 21 hra Santiago time), Tom Morello, Skrillex, Interpol, Turnstile, Lorde, Tyler the Creator, Sabrina Carpenter, among others.
Enjoy!

@leoschuldiner23 I remember Lollapalooza coming to Berlin a few years ago. I didn't go because the only band I would've been interested in was Rage against the machine - and seeing them in this setting just felt wrong. But what was even worse is that the festival left and they left all their junk behind. The whole area was just a damn mess.
