From Bob Schulties, your About Today Editor
I'm so old I can remember when Lollapalooza was new. And I can remember taking my girlfriend (now wife) to one and sitting on the roof of my truck's cab just watching all the people file in. Sitting on the roof of the cab caused a short in the electrical system so that the radio didn't work. Whoops.

Lollapalooza 2012
Here's who to watch. To think... most of these kids weren't even born when I first went. I'm kidding, of course; I'm not that old. Although I do like naps and supper at 4 p.m.

Country Music Festivals
I still like going out to hear music but I'm pretty sure these are more my speed now, rather than Lollapalooza.

Blues Festivals
I've never ever been to a blues festival so I think I've got to put that on my ever-growing bucket list. Have you gone?

Bringing Your Children?
If it's the right festival, you should absolutely bring your children. What a way to expose them to other cultures and sounds they've never heard before. And, come on, there's nothing better than kids dancing (like we used to when no one was watching).
