Lollapalooza 2007! Don't call it a comeback...

Hot Damn! Lollapalooza will again take place in Grant Park, Chicago, from August 3-5, for the first of a five-year contract signed between Lollapalooza and the City of Chicago. The standard price of the tickets this year is $195, and tickets are not subject to additional service fees.
