Today is Wednesday, and that means the start of Lollapalooza 2011 is a mere 2 days away. I’m moderately excited about this year’s lineup, so it should be a pretty great weekend as it typically is. Still, it’s completely sold out, so if you’re going expect capacity crowds every day. I’ll be publishing my guide to the music at this year’s Lollapalooza tomorrow, so hopefully it will give you a little insight in case you’re stuck with some time slot conflicts. It’s no picnic walking from one end of Grant Park to the other, so try to plan accordingly. Now then, allow me to break down today’s edition of Pick Your Poison. Highlights include tracks from Canon Blue, Forest Fire, Halloween Alaska, Sean Waterman and Tuesday Glass. Also be sure to download the new song from Icebird, a new collaborative project started by RJD2. In the Soundcloud section you’ll find new songs from Active Child and Das Racist, as well as a classic from Screaming Females.
