Stereogum just posted the line-up for Lollapalooza 2007, and while I know imaginary girl Liz hates festivals, Oasis, and port-o-potties (not necessarily in that order), I know she's gonna be tempted because her favorite happy-pop-tacular band of the moment, Los Campesinos, are on the bill!! Well, them and approximately five zillion other bands. I'm not hardly exaggerating.
igLiz's other crush of the moment (The Fratellis) will also be there, as will my mad rad musical infatuation of this year (Amy Winehouse) and last (Heartless Bastards).
