CTFxC: Charles And Alli At Lollapalooza

Alli, Charles & Shay
on their way to Lollapalooza

Charles Trippy and Alli Speed get to go to some pretty wild places and events and luckily they upload them to their CTFxC Youtube channel for all of us to share. In this video they, along with Shay Carl, Casey (Shay's brother), Lisa Nova, BrettTheIntern, and KassemG are going to Lollapalooza 2011 and their video below shows a ton of great behind the scenes stuff. Oh yeah, and Nice Peter is in the mix somewhere too.

The bands that played today (August 6th) were: J. Roddy Walston & the Business, Fitz & The Tantrums, Mayer Hawthorne & The Country, Big Audio Dynamite, Local Natives, Deftones, My Morning Jacket, Grouplove, Walk the Moon, Black Lips, Death From Above 1979, Ween, Beats Antique and Coldplay doing an encore after their great show Friday (the one Alli and Charles were at).

In My Place by Coldplay

Lot's of great bands, Charles talks with Sonny Moore from Skrillex who in the past has let Charles use some of his tunage. Also, there's a great scene when Alli and Charles are listening to Coldplay where he explains Alli is crying because they will be walking down the aisle (fairly soon!) to Coldplay's "In My Place" (which was the song playing when Charles proposed to Alli in Spain. If you haven't seen it, that's the link).

Make sure that you tune in to the official Lollapalooza webstream which will be broadcast live. So far you may have missed the first two days but you can watch ALL of the third day (including the Foo Fighters).

If you want to see clips of Coldplay and all of the other bands onstage that you've missed you can find them there too. They have two channels available so if you aren't interested in one band you can switch over to another.

Shay Carl Invades Lollapalooza

Not your usual Shaytards video! In case you didn't already know, Lollapolooza is happening right now (if you're reading this later, um, I guess you missed out) and Shay Carl, Charles and Alli from CTFxC, and even KassemG are all backstage watching the bands perform (Kassem is wearing an odd tank top which I think almost got him arrested). If you want to see what it's like up close and personal to the stage area, watch this. Just try to avoid the punch-happy security guys (or who I like to call Fisty, Stabby and Punchy). "Who's that other guy with the beard?" you're asking? That's Shay's brother Casey who also has a channel on Youtube (caseylavere) so take a look at his channel too. Somewhere in this crowd is Lisa Nova (I think that might be Lisa at 9:30 putting on the glasses) although she made a pre-Lollapolooza video: LollapaLISA!).



Lollapolooza is going on from August 5th to the 7th and they are streaming it live on Youtube at the following: Lollapalooza on Youtube, so go check it. Below is a listing showing what bands will be playing, so check them out.
