- Dallas Morning News: "Opening with a blast from those candy-colored clowns they call Green Day and ending 10 hours later with a curiously abrasive and ultimately rocking set from Smashing Pumpkins, Dallas’ 1994 slice of Lollapalooza pie was a hearty helping. Green Day singer Billie Joe set the tone at around 2:15 in the afternoon when he unzipped his pants during Longview, pulled out his penis and wrapped it around the mike stand. People hardly noticed, however, because the band was a furious blur. Green Day is entirely derivative of late ’70s British punk bands like the Buzzcocks and the Jam, but they’re harder, rougher and funnier than those groups. L7 also played a cartoony brand of punk, with the Slits serving as their model, but like Green Day, they brought a lot of contemporary fury to their interpretation and caused the first massive mosh pit on the grass."
