With way too much to cover at Lollapalooza, we are going to just do most surreals, check it:

Friday, Day 1 of Lollapalooza, August 1st:

Most Surreal moment of the day: Seeing Radiohead from the side of the AT&T stage- 90,000 people moving to the same song, fireworks lighting up the beautiful Chicago skyline, all while headlining act DJ MomJeans (A.K.A. Danny Masterson) shared a patch of grass just a few feet away.

Most surreal moment of the day, 2: Realizing Hyde (Danny Masterson) from That 70’s Show was a headlining artist at Lollapalooza. I digress…
