YouTube Brings Lollapalooza Live From Chicago to Your Couch

Lollapalooza's sold-out, three-day show in Chicago's Grant Park is currently underway, and if you didn't manage to score tickets or you aren't in Chicagoland, you can still get in on the action, thanks to YouTube.

For its ninth year in Chicago (the festival used to be a traveling roadshow), Lollapalooza is hosting over 130 musical acts from Aug. 2 to 4, and YouTube is live-streaming sets from more than 20 of them, as part of what it's calling #Lazypalooza.

Beginning at 2:15 p.m. CT, the Saturday live stream (embedded above) kicks off with English musician Ben Howard, followed by others acts including indie favorites Local Natives, singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding, as well as The National and Mumford & Sons.

Highlights from Friday's live stream included Icona Pop and Nine Inch Nails' first U.S. performance since 2009. Sunday's webcast will feature Vampire Weekend, Beach House and the Cure, among others.

So fire up the laptop, grab some snacks and rock out to your favorite bands from the comfort of your couch — no crowds, passes or braving of thunderstorms required.
