LIVE REVIEW: INNERVIEW DOES LOLLAPALOOZA, DAY TWO

Starting off Lolla day two nestled within the coveted shady parts of the American Eagle Stage, hip hop darling Tyla Yaweh maintained a rowdy and rambunctious gathering and even jumped off stage for a crowd-surfing moment to finish off the set. 21 Savage returned to Lollapalooza this year, met again with a sizeable turnout of diehard fans who were lucky enough to catch the rapper perform “Monster” with Sunday’s headliner Childish Gambino. Later, Janelle Monae was ravishing in red with multiple dancers and costume changes featured within her hour-long slot at the T-Mobile Stage. Fans old and young shimmied and shook to the Prince-inspired “Make Me Feel” and the upbeat “Tightrope” paired with Monae’s megawatt smile. Chicago’s own Chevelle brought back the alt-rock memories, asking attendees in the crowd if they wanted to hear their older tunes (to which the response was of course). Nostalgia was the theme of the hour, as just 180 degrees away Death Cab For Cutie took the stage. Sounding nearly identical to their studio albums, the band cruised down memory lane as anticipated. Yet that didn’t stop them from bringing hometown hero Chance the Rapper out during “Do You Remember” before closing out with fan fave “Soul Meets Body.” The battle royale of the night consisted of headliners Tame Impala vs. Childish Gambino, distanced about a mile apart at opposite ends of the fest. A shirtless and theatrical Donald Glover glided and danced about the T-Mobile Stage, singing songs like “Atavista” and “Feels Like Summer” (which it did). Meanwhile Kevin Parker and the Tame Impala crew showcased an opulent new stage setup featuring a ridiculous amount of lasers, fog, and a floating disc above the stage which emitted lights throughout their performance. Tame Impala fans enjoyed “Borderline”, “Elephant”, an A$AP Rocky dedication, and more during the set…to which the band thanked the crowd for missing out on Childish Gambino to be there instead. –TEXT: DANIELLA THOMPSON–PHOTO: GRANT HODGEON/LOLLAPALOOZA 2019
