Monday Bears: Monday's Lollapalooza updates

I should probably rename Bears and Bullets to Lolla and Lollapalooza this time of year, on the count of my rampant obsession with anything and everything about the annual Chicago festival.

One day before festival promoters release the official lineup, Chicago Tribune writer Greg Kot (thanks in most part from Consequence of Sound) has given word of what should be the final lineup. Again, this is not the official lineup released by Lollapalooza promoters, but more than likely the final lineup.

First, a couple corrections from the last Lolla rumor post from Wednesday -- Speculated acts David Byrne and Dangerdoom will not be appearing this year. Disappointing, yes.

A few surprise acts climbed their way into the final rumored lineup, including Erykah Badu, MUTEMATH, Stars, Health, Wavves and the Walkmen slated to make a 2010 appearance. The final lineup, including the electronic acts at Perry's Place, should resemble something like this (according to Kot):


Soundgarden, Green Day, Lady Gaga, Arcade Fire, The Strokes, Phoenix, Social Distortion, MGMT, Jimmy Cliff, Hot Chip, the Black Keys, the National, Spoon, Devo, Cypress Hill, Cut Copy, The New Pornographers, Erykah Badu, Slightly Stoopid, Grizzly Bear, Gogol Bordello, Chromeo, Wolfmother, Yeasayer, X Japan, MUTEMATH, Metric, Dirty Projectors, AFI, Mavis Staples, Matt & Kim, the xx, Drive-By Truckers, Blues Traveler
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, The Temper Trap, Jamie Lidell, Frightened, Rabbit, Fuck Buttons, Deer Tick, Blitzen Trapper, Stars, Raphael Saadiq, The Cribs, Minus the Bear, Switchfoot, The Walkmen, Mumford & Sons, Wild Beasts, Rogue Wave, Los Amigos Invisibles, the Big Pink, the Dodos, Hockey, Cymbals Eat Guitars, B.o.B, Dawes, Warpaint, The Antlers, The Soft Pack, Rebelution, Balkan Beat Box
