The post-weekend blues call for a much needed pick-me-up, and Roxwel scored just that with its coverage of Lollapalooza 2010. Featuring interviews with Chromeo, Slightly Stoopid, Violent Soho, Semi Precious Weapons, Dan Black, The Ettes, Against Me!, Dawes, The Morning Benders, Frightened Rabbit, The Big Pink, Neon Trees, Warpaint, Deer Tick and more, Roxwel has released two unique pieces of video content with interview clips from the aforementioned bands.
First up? With Lady Gaga's whopping $250K stage budget for the festival, it was impossible not to ask other bands playing the fest just what they'd do with that money for a single show. The result? From jetpacks and drugs to vintage gear, free champagne for teenagers and vans supplied with mattresses in the back (thank you, Semi Precious Weapons), Roxwel scored some seriously awesome answers that are guaranteed to make you laugh: http://www.roxwel.com/player/lolla2010gagabudget.html.
In the second piece, Roxwel gets the artists' perspective on music festivals with Lollapalooza, of course, at the center. Not only do fans get the lowdown on what bands their favorite artists like to check out, but they also hear just how the bands go about tailoring their festival sets to attract a new audience, the draw of playing Lollapalooza and some crazy shenanigans that occurred over the course of the weekend: http://www.roxwel.com/player/lolla2010recap.html.
Roxwel's other coverage from Lollapalooza includes live performance photos (http://www.roxwel.com/news/lolla-10:-photo-recap.html) and daily recaps: Day 1 (http://www.roxwel.com/news/lolla-10:-day-1-recap.html), Day 2 (http://www.roxwel.com/news/lolla-10:-day-2-recap.html) and Day 3 (http://www.roxwel.com/news/lolla-10:-day-3-recap.html).
