[newsImage]080810_lola.jpg[/newsImage]Green Day rocked the 'Windy City' of Chicago last night as they headlined the Lollapalooza Festival's second night. Green Day has only played Lollapalooza one other time back in 1994 when Green Day was one of the warm up acts.

ConsequenceofSound.net has posted their review of Lollapalooza raving on about the bands action packed two hour set full of fireworks, confetti, and stage divers.
Armstrong intended to do more than just rile up the crowd, he wanted to turn the Windy City into a fiery hellstorm. Take for example, the event's 10 p.m. curfew, which he sneered at, jovially declaring, "I say you kiss my white fucking ass, and we'll play how long we want." It should be noted that he stuck true to his words.

Shortly after the show had come to a close Billie posted the following message on the band's twitter.
Lollapalooza was amazing! Best festival in america! Chicago was perfect location! Highlight-screwing up lyrics for she's a rebel! Oops.RnL

A setlist from the show can be found over on our tour page and you can view over 150 photos from the show in our Picture Vault.
