With 2024's 3-part documentary LOLLA: The Story of Lollapalooza, and our own Lollapalooza episode many years ago, you might wonder what's left to learn about the famed traveling music festival of the 1990s. Turns out, a lot. Thanks to the hundreds of interviews and thousands of hours of work by authors Tom Beaujour and Richard Bienstock completed for their second book "Lollapalooza - The Uncensored Story of Alternative Rock's Wildest Festival," this extensive oral history talks with everyone involved: artists, tour founders, festival organizers, promoters, publicists, sideshow freaks, stage crews, record label execs, reporters, roadies and more. 

Songs In This Episode

Outro - The Last Beat Of My Heart by Siouxsie and the Banshees (Live at Lollapalooza 1991)
