http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbe ... mID=153079JANE'S ADDICTION, DEFTONES Confirmed For LOLLAPALOOZA CHILE - Jan. 30, 2011
Festival visionary Perry Farrell, in conjunction with Chile's Lotus Producciones, WME and C3 Presents — the promotional partners behind the North American Lollapalooza — have announced the lineup for the inaugural Lollapalooza Chile in South America. Headliners THE KILLERS, JANE´S ADDICTION and KANYE WEST plus the YEAH YEAH YEAHS are among the 50-plus acts performing on five stages at the two-day festival on Saturday, April 2 and Sunday, April 3 in O'Higgins Park, Santiago.
For close to 20 years as the premier alternative music festival, Lollapalooza is expanding with this unique and unforgettable event. With an eclectic lineup of top talent from around the world including an array of artists from Chile, Lollapalooza Chile will feature two outdoor main stages, an electronic arena stage and a small alternative stage, plus — like Lollapalooza in North America — an all-ages Kidzapalooza stage for family fun. Similar to its Chicago home Grant Park, O'Higgins Park is a gorgeous scenic locale in the middle of a bustling urban hub. Farrell also emphasizes that Lollapalooza will partake in a "cultural exchange," by featuring Chilean artists at this summer's North American Lollapalooza in Chicago.
Assembling this distinguished line-up of acts for the debut of Lollapalooza Chile was no easy feat. Says Farrell, who will perform with both JANE'S ADDICTION and his electronic hybrid PERRYETTY, "The job we did to gather these artists for 2011 was remarkable. Imagine gathering 60 artists while the contract ink is still wet. We put it together at a record pace as we had four months. We did not want to come to Chile with a lineup that was anything other than world-class, and my partners Marc Geiger of WME and Charles Attal of C3 have been absolutely integral to Lollapalooza Chile launching in 2011. Our selections are very animated, with much diversity. There is Chilean talent in the mix. Now that the lineup is announced here, we are going back to Chile to work on the other aspects of the festival." Adds Farrell: "Our ambition is to plant a very strong seed in Chile. One that will grow over the years, and provide Santiago with an event for the ages."
Available now for the festival are general two-day passes for $110 presale, $136 then $152; Lolla Lounge two-day VIP passes for $320 presale then $380; And beginning February 11, general admission single day tickets for $72 presale then $84 and VIP passes for $240.

http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/ ... -chi-town/Lollapalooza in Chile, a Different Chi-Town
By JON PARELES
SANTIAGO, Chile — A franchise expands to an unlikely spot this weekend as Lollapalooza, the giant rock festival that has become an annual event in Chicago, opens a new front here in the capital of Chile.
In Chicago, Lollapalooza books more than 100 bands for three days in August. Here, more than 50 acts are scheduled to perform on Saturday and Sunday in O’Higgins Park, the second-largest park in Chile, taking advantage of its existing performance spaces (including a disco with room for 15,000 people) as well as a giant outdoor stage. Like Lollapalooza in Chicago, the event is located within the city, easy reachable by public transportation and bicycle. Two-day general admission tickets are about $160.
The headliners are American, among them Kanye West, the Killers, the Deftones and Jane’s Addiction, led by Lollapalooza’s founder, Perry Farrell.
But the early portion of each day’s bill, out of necessity or local pride, features Chilean and other Spanish-speaking bands, among them Bomba Estereo from Colombia, the Spanish rapper La Mala Rodriguez, the rapper and singer Ana Tijoux (born to Chilean expatriates in France) and the singer and songwriter Javiera Mena from Chile. The local radio station Radio Uno (97.1 FM), which plays Chilean pop, also claimed Mr. West in a way, promoting Lollapalooza Chile with a snippet from his “Homecoming”: “I’m talking about Chi-Town.” Chi as in Chile, perhaps.
In an interview, Mr. Farrell said he does not expect the first Lollapalooza Chile to be profitable, or necessarily to break even. The park, about one-fourth the size of New York’s Central Park, can hold more than 100,000 people, he said; he is expecting about 40,000 each day. This is the proof-of-concept Lollapalooza Chile, said Mr. Farrell, who is determined to make it an annual event. He said that some performers were paid a premium to appear at a festival far off their usual tour itineraries. (His own Jane’s Addiction performed in Argentina on the way to Lollapalooza Chile.)
This year is the 20th anniversary of the first Lollapalooza, a very different touring festival that was a startling confluence of punk, hip-hop, new wave, electronica and (then as now) Jane’s Addiction. After long gaps, Lollapalooza returned as the Chicago festival in 2005, and Mr. Farrell said he had wanted to expand somewhere.
“We could have gone into Europe and the U.K. and tried to bust out another festival,” he said, “but they’ve got a thousand festivals over there.” He met the Chilean producers of Lollapalooza Chile, Lotus Producciones, and its leaders reminded him, he said, of the young promoters of the original Lollapalooza.
“They were available and they were desirous, and we were available and we were desirous,” he said before quoting “Jane Says,” an early Jane’s Addiction song: “I only want ’em if they want me.”
