Lollapalloza Chile 2014 celebrated the alternative music.

The Lollapalloza Festival franchise established in Chicago as well as in Brazil and Chile had its first live show in Argentina this year and showed an immaculate production for the enjoyment of all fans.

The show in Chile was on Saturday march 29^th and Sunday 30^th, in the open areas of the O’Higgins Park in Santiago. 6 Stages, 80 thousand of attendants, and a wide proposal for recycling and ecological sustainability, thousands could enjoy 12 non-stop hours of live music everyday.

On Saturday 29^th, Café Tacvba, gave a 45 minutes show on which the band played known hits as: “Ingrata”, “La Chica Banda” and “Déjate Caer”.  After them, bands like Capital Cities and Cage The Elephant.

Capital Cities made the audience vibe very quickly with their fusion of pop and electronic music on the stage sponsored by PlayStation, which was going to show The Wailers later that night. Simultaneously, Cage The Elephant performed on the Claro Stage, the second main stage on the event.

An hour later Imagine Dragons captivated a huge amount of people, in their 60 minutes performance the band showed why in such a little time they managed to be the leading band in the music charts in the industry thanks to their album Night Visions.

After Imagine Dragons were done bands like Wolfgang Gartner, AFI and Ellie Goulding, favorite of the moment. The festival became a roller coaster of emotions: some attendants took a walk on the design kiosks on the festival, others went to the kids area or “Kidsapalloza”, and even went looking for some Lollapalloza merchandise.

Another band that left a very good impression was Nine Inch Nails. Execution was flawless and the lights display kept the attendants in awe during all the show, especially during the last song “Hurt”.

To wrap up the first night of Lollapalloza people could choose from the three staging presenting Dj Zedd, The Wailers and Red Hot Chili Peppers; the latter gathering thousands of people during their 90 minutes performance. Despite the low temperatures that night, fans of Red Hot Chili Peppers could enjoy songs like “Can’t Stop”, “Otherside”, “By The Way” and “Californication”. There is no doubt this was the cherry on top.

March, Sunday 30^th was the second day of Lollapalloza Chile 2014, the festival that managed to attract 80 thousand people on day 1, was ready for another go with a massive organization that ascertained that Lollapalloza Chile is established as on of the best music festivals in Latin America and the world.

The Mexican pop-rock singer Natalia Lafourcade showed how happy and proud she was of being part of this music festival with a beautiful performance that attracted a big chunk of the crowd. Also that day Portugal The Man, Johnny Marr and Julian Casablancas made history on that day for being the first time these bands played in Chile. Although the performance of the latter was tainted by some technical issues and the voice and guitars were extremely distorted, disappointing many of the fans on the event. Despite the problems Casablanca managed to make it up to his fans and kept rocking no matter what.

Another highlight of the night was New-Zealand’s singer Lorde, songs of her recent album “Pure Heroine” gathered teenagers, teenagers are Lorde’s biggest fans for now, who sang and felt many emotions during her performance. When she was done, Lorde was very emotional of being somewhere far from her home and also was moved and overwhelmed by the fact that her music is listened in that part of the world.

To wrap up the attendees of the second day of Lollapalloza 2014 were split between the fans of electronic music and rock/grunge; while on the stage sponsored by LG DJ Axwell had a vibrant show full of beat drops, striking lighting and hallucinating visuals. On the other stage Soundgarden performed a 90 minutes set where the uncountable amount of people gathered in front of the stage to enjoy the band.

During the show you could notice people from different nationalities and different parts of the world, including children, went to a massive event to connect and live under one sole motive: Music.
