Olivia Rodrigo rides high in her festival era. She will set new records with 18 festival themes in a year - she is holding a full-blown rock show. To celebrate LIV's fifth straight summer, O-Rod toured from Lollapalooza in Chicago to Bonnaroo, Tennessee, to New York Governor Ball. But she is not alone. Women’s headlines are taking center stage in the big summer celebrations, whether it’s Gracie Abrams outside or Charli XCX’s headlines Glastonbury. Last year, Chappell Roan's Lollapalooza victory was just the beginning. We live in an era when the Pop Queens took over the new rock gods.
When Lollapalooza first announced that Olivia and Sabrina Carpenter made headlines this summer (with Taylor, creator and Rüfüs DuSoul) and Abrams was also in the top slot, Lollapalooza's teeth were predictable, a precious rock legacy. duuuude, What do pop girls do here? But Olivia, Sabrina, Chappell, Gracie, and more - they're just creating a new world-bound stadium - rock paradigm, guitar and everyone, it's the craze of the blocks, and the positive fanatics seemed to have all given up years ago.
Olivia introduced her new magic to the world on her South American show this spring to streamline her courage Exposed mind rock explosion. She faces the biggest crowd of her career on the Lollapalooza show in Argentina, Chile and Brazil. The girl is always intoxicated by her rock action.
But Lolla Olivia was swaying the rocks and throwing everything else onto the boat. She skipped the theater's energy - she no longer floated around the crowd on the crescent moon. She started with her crazy "obsession" and exerted her dynamic trash anger. Her killer all-girl band has plenty of room to show off. She covered “Don’t Talk,” but her guitar ballad turned into a larger stadium singing song. This is summed up in the great moments in "Bad Ideas", where she kneels, climbs onto the catwalk, kneels down and worships her guitar hands in Lo. She wasn't the first rock star to beat the move, but she was enraged by the profession of melodrama (Olivia) until she was her own moment.
Olivia has been showing off her Jones as she has been the Queen of the Eighties since she covered Veruca Salt on her first tour. This is a casual girl Rolling stones Her mother wakes her up every morning by playing the baby from the album "Toy Lan" fountain. (Even Babes' most famous album, there is no impressive deep cut.) But she openly celebrates her connection to the legacy of female rock stars in the 90s and brings it into the future.
exist courage On tour, her pre-sale mix killed the bikini and hired breeders as the opening ceremony. "I remember there were two different periods in my life," she said to the crowd. "Before I heard the 'cannonballs', after I heard the 'cannonballs'." So it was a complete moment - as always, she was fascinated by the details and knew her own history.
In Lollapalooza, the headlines for Olivia happen to be Nu-Metal Legends Korn, which is perfect. Korn blew up late in MTV's 90s Total request live broadcast, The daily countdown for fan recordings is a battle between Britney/Backstreet Boys Pop Kids and Korn/Limp Bizkit Rock Kids. But now Korn is opening up for a girl who combines Britney and Korn's best, and it's a freak.
Last year, Chappell Roan's Lollapalooza blowout was a real change for the guards. It was crazy to think that Chapel initially booked for the small stage until they had to reschedule her as the main stage due to unprecedented demand. But her scene blows it up to a bigger point than the rest of the festival, which likely attracted the most embracing crowd in Lollapalooza's history - the real female-like animal. A few years ago, such a thing was unimaginable. But this is the era we live in now.
This is a major change. Olivia's favorite music era, the nineties, was defined by the feminist rock blast, whose artists range from independent levels to arenas to radio waves. But the strong rebound was severe, as the broadcast suddenly clamped and stopped playing these artists. Woodstock '99 sets a new tone for misogynistic violence and Nu-Metal Machismo. It marks the end of one era and the beginning of another as the industry rewinds the clock and returns to the days when all male and female performances and festivals are the norm. By 2004, there was only one major rock tour throughout the year, including a female musician - the Elf, on the Reunion Run, Kim Deal on Bass.
So, it's great to see King and Olivia courage travel. Surprisingly, between the two bands, there was only one male musician all night - the breeder's drummer. Sometimes, it’s tiny satire to tell the biggest story. But pop girls have come to take back the legacy of rock stars and show everyone else how it is done. Through this life.
