Love it!! SNOBS get to pay $100 a ticket to get into Lallapalooza. I will stick with Summerfest and get to see 100's of bands at one low price.

I am so sick of hearing people complain about Summerfest! It is a wonderful festival and is a HUGE value compared to other similar festivals. It is in a beautiful location on a gorgeous lake and an unbeatable entertainment value. And, yes, they are trying to attract a more mature audience to avoid all the problems seen in the past with young-uns. Enjoy it and quit your crying !!!

Snoooooze. Hardly anything for actual music lovers. Too bad the Bronze Fonz wont be up yet. All the people who go see these bands would have loved to see the Fonz too!
